About Cancer

Our Medical Team

The Cancer Institute of Dallas’ licensed medical staff is board-certified in the broad range of oncology and hematology practice areas. Today, the Institute and Dallas Oncology Consultants employ seven full-time physicians dedicated to the care of hematologic and oncologic diseases both within the Institute and at three satellite offices.

Our physicians are also active in the teaching of internal medicine and family practice residents at the Methodist Hospitals of Dallas. In addition, medical students and pharmacy interns from different area programs routinely elected to participate in the Institute’s educational activities. Moreover, our physicians comprise the area’s leaders in clinical research, affording patients the opportunity to participate in a broad variety of clinical studies; the practice has surpassed the registration rates of many of the country’s medical schools in various studies.
