Specialties and Gynecologic Cancer Care Approach
Gynecologic oncology combines cancer surgery with medical treatment for malignancies of the female reproductive system. Dr. Lee’s evaluation may include reviewing symptoms, imaging, pathology findings, laboratory results, cancer stage, earlier treatments, and the patient’s general health. Treatment can involve surgery, chemotherapy, targeted medication, clinical-trial participation, or coordination with radiation oncologists and other specialists. The recommended plan depends on the cancer type, location, stage, molecular features, treatment history, and the patient’s preferences.
