Gynecologic Oncology

Obstetrics, Gynecology & Reproductive Sciences
The mission of the Division of Gynecologic Oncology is to provide the highest level of world class, evidence-based, comprehensive, personalized care for our patients, to engage in cutting-edge research in gynecologic cancers and to educate the most compassionate future leaders and experts in our field.

Patient Care

According to the National Cancer Institute, more than 108,000 women in the U.S. are expected to be diagnosed with a gynecological cancer in 2024. Our experts, who work on six subspecialties, recognize the uniqueness of each diagnosis. As the only NCI-designated cancer center in South Florida, we have the largest portfolio of clinical trials, and the most advanced approaches to surgery and cancer research. Every new gynecologic cancer patient’s case is presented at a multidisciplinary tumor board that includes the input of medical, gynecologic and radiation oncologists, radiologists, pathologists and genetic counselors. This collaboration ensures an accurate, comprehensive diagnosis and the most targeted, individualized treatments.

We offer the most advanced treatment options for gynecologic cancers. Our board-certified physicians provide comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment for each patient and offer a full array of care for conditions including: 

  • Cervical Cancer
  • Gestational trophoblastic disease
  • Ovarian Cancer
  • Uterine and Endometrial Cancer
  • Vaginal Cancer
  • Vulvar Cancer

We also maintain strong associations with experts in other related specialties, enabling us to provide individualized, multidisciplinary care to each patient. We understand that a visit with us may come at a stressful time, and we are committed to giving you the most compassionate and professional services possible.

We are ready to help. Call 1-844-324-HOPE (4673) for an appointment or obtain further information here.
