As a medical oncologist at the Duke Cancer Institute, my focus for many years has been on a challenging cancer – pancreatic cancer. We are learning and making progress, and with the collaborations we build with radiation oncologists, surgeons, our imaging colleagues and others, we’re able to do things today that we could not do 10 years ago. I enjoy interacting directly with patients.
