Our Breast Cancer Clinic uses a unique multidisciplinary treatment approach, developed by a team of our cancer specialists to reduce your confusion and apprehension while speeding the transition from diagnosis to a comprehensive treatment plan. Learn more about the WMCC Breast Cancer Clinic.
Gynecologic Oncology
Gynecologic Oncology researches, diagnoses and treats malignancies arising in the female reproductive tract. The ovaries, endometrium, cervix, vulva and vagina are the sites of origin of the most common and challenging gynecologic malignancies. Often discussed as a group, they have significant differences in etiology, prevention, detection, treatment and likelihood of cure.
Our gynecologic oncologist, Younes Noaman Bakri. MD, FACOG, is an obstetrician/gynecologist and cancer specialist with several years of structured training in all of the effective forms of treatment of gynecologic cancers (surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and experimental treatments) as well as the biology and pathology of gynecologic cancer. The unique aspect of this training is that it allows you to receive the mode of therapy or combinations of therapy most likely to be successful without fragmenting your care among many physicians.
Neuro-Oncology Clinic
The Neuro-Oncology Clinic was established in an effort to treat a person's cancer more quickly and efficiently. After just one meeting with our team, each patient leaves with a comprehensive treatment plan that can be acted upon immediately. We also provide second opinion consultations for patients from other cancer treatment facilities. This clinic provides every patient with:
