Meet Our Team

At the Neag Comprehensive Cancer Center, we have a passionate and diverse team of experts committed to providing you with the latest, most thorough, and most compassionate cancer care available today. Our team includes nationally recognized oncologists, nurse practitioners, mental health clinicians, and dietitians.

Every patient also has access to a nurse navigator whose sole purpose is to act as a guide through this trying time. He or she will be there to answer any questions you may have about your care and can provide additional resources if necessary.
