Head and Neck Cancer

The treatment of head and neck cancers—such as oral, oropharyngeal, pharyngeal, laryngeal, nasal, thyroid, skin, and sinus cancers and salivary gland tumors—often requires more than one approach. Our team of experts will customize your treatment, offering surgery, several types of radiation therapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and supportive services. Our therapies are based on the latest findings of medical research, and we create your treatment plan based on your personal needs and preferences. We also offer a comprehensive clinical trials program, featuring studies evaluating new innovative approaches.

Our head and neck cancer treatment team includes ear/nose/throat surgeons, maxillofacial surgeons, dentists, plastic and reconstructive surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, radiologists, pathologists, nurses, speech and swallowing therapists, registered dietitians, social workers, and others who understand the impact that head and neck cancers have on your well-being and quality of life. Our speech and swallowing therapists help you recover from head and neck cancer and the side effects of treatment, while our registered dietitians work with you to ensure you are obtaining enough nutrition to support your health during and after cancer therapy. Our goal is to cure your cancer with attention to your cosmetic appearance, function, and quality of life.
