Gynecological Oncology Clinical Program

The Gynecological Oncology Clinical Program at the GW Cancer Center is dedicated to providing comprehensive and compassionate care to women diagnosed with gynecologic cancers, including ovarian, uterine, cervical, vulvar, and vaginal cancers. We also treat patients with pre-invasive diseases of the cervix, vulva or vagina; elevated tumor markers that warrant further diagnostic testing; or multiple risk factors, including a personal or family history of gynecological cancer, that merit risk counseling and screening services. We also offer specialty services like high-risk genetic counseling for hereditary ovarian and endometrial cancer cases, patient navigators, and social workers to help coordinate care. Our approach is centered around you. We listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and involve you in every step of your treatment journey.

Expert Multidisciplinary Team 
Our multidisciplinary team includes renowned gynecologic oncologists, surgeons, radiation oncologists, pathologists, and specialized nurses. This collaborative approach ensures that each patient receives personalized care tailored to their individual needs to deliver the best possible outcomes. Our program also provides patients access to specialized care for the skin-related side effects of treatment through our Supportive Oncodermatology Clinic, the first of its kind in the region.

Advanced Surgical Techniques 
We utilize the latest minimally invasive surgical techniques, such as the da Vinci robotic-assisted surgery, which can result in shorter recovery times, less pain, and smaller scars.

Support Services 
Understanding that cancer affects all aspects of life, we provide comprehensive support services, including counseling, nutrition advice, and physical therapy, to help patients and their families navigate the challenges of diagnosis and treatment.

Education and Resources 
We offer educational resources to help patients and caregivers understand their diagnosis and treatment options. We aim to empower you with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions about your care.
