At Stony Brook Cancer Center, we understand that being diagnosed with cancer is life-altering and deserves individualized attention.

Our experts in gastrointestinal cancer bring their world-class knowledge and skills to provide their patients with advanced care that is customized to the type and stage of cancer they have, while accommodating personal needs and quality-of-life issues.

After a diagnosis is made, multiple specialists on the team collaborate to create a comprehensive plan of care for each patient. The three main types of treatment are surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy, alone, or in a combination. Immunotherapy treatments are also incorporated when applicable.
