Care provided is highly personalized, taking into account the specific type and stage of cancer, the nature of the neurological condition, and the individual patient's circumstances and preferences. Treatment strategies may involve a combination of approaches, potentially including medical management, coordination with surgical oncology, radiation oncology, and other supportive care services available within the MSK system. The practice is committed to not only treating the disease but also managing symptoms, improving quality of life, and providing compassionate support to patients and their families throughout their journey. The location in Manhattan makes it accessible to patients within the New York City metropolitan area and beyond who seek specialized care from a leading institution in cancer treatment and research.
