James Link, MD, PhD

My care philosophy has been shaped by my personal experiences with the cancer journeys of close relatives, friends, and patients as well as my drug discovery research experience. I seek to provide compassionate individualized care where cure is sought and treatment effects are considered and minimized. Shared decision making between the patient and physician with straightforward bidirectional communication is optimal to ensure that the treatment options are clear and goals are met. Close collaborations between radiation oncology, surgery, and other specialists are often required for patient care. Immunotherapy approaches have become a preferred treatment approach. Personalized Medicine treatment options are pursued depending upon the genomic alterations present. Clinical Trials are considered at each step in the treatment process and excellent options are available within the practice.
