Gynecologic Oncology

You should see a gynecologic oncologist if:

• You've been diagnosed with or suspected to have a reproductive cancer
• You have abnormal Pap test results or persistent pelvic symptoms
• You're considering surgery for a gynecologic cancer
• You have a family history of ovarian or uterine cancer
• You’ve been referred for specialized oncology care

Q1: What is a gynecologic oncologist?
A1: A gynecologic oncologist is a specialist trained to diagnose and treat cancers of the female reproductive system, including the uterus, ovaries, cervix, and vulva. They are also trained in advanced surgical techniques and medical oncology.

Q2: What symptoms should I not ignore?
A2: See a specialist if you experience abnormal bleeding, pelvic pain, bloating, or unexplained weight loss—especially if you have a family history of gynecologic cancers.

Q3: Can I still see my regular OBGYN during treatment?
A3: Yes. Our gynecologic oncologists work closely with your existing providers to coordinate care before, during, and after treatment.
