What is a gynecological oncology specialist?
A gynecological oncology specialist is a physician who is
trained in obstetrics and gynecology and has additional training in gynecologic
cancers. These physicians combine knowledge of gynecology with expertise in
detecting and treating cancers of the female reproductive system. They also
work closely with other specialists to provide a comprehensive,
multidisciplinary approach to treating cancer in women.
