Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Radiation Oncology oncologist do?
A Radiation Oncology oncologist is a Oncology physician with focused training in the use of radiation therapy to treat cancer and certain non-cancerous conditions. After completing Oncology residency, they pursue additional fellowship training so they can manage cases that fall outside what a general oncologist typically handles day to day.
What conditions does a Radiation Oncology oncologist treat?
A Radiation Oncology oncologist commonly treats breast cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, head and neck cancers, brain tumors, and lymphomas. Many also see closely related conditions within Oncology, particularly when a case is complex, atypical, or has not responded to first-line care from a general oncologist.
When should I see a Radiation Oncology oncologist?
Consider seeing a Radiation Oncology oncologist when your treatment plan includes radiation therapy or you are evaluating radiation as an option, when a primary care clinician or general oncologist suggests a focused evaluation, or when you want a second opinion from a physician whose practice is concentrated on this exact area. Patients often reach a Radiation Oncology oncologist through referral, but you can also seek one directly.
How is a Radiation Oncology oncologist different from a general oncologist?
Both are board-eligible oncologists, but a Radiation Oncology oncologist has additional fellowship training and a practice that focuses on the use of radiation therapy to treat cancer and certain non-cancerous conditions. General oncologists treat a broad range of Oncology concerns; Radiation Oncology oncologists concentrate on the harder or more specific cases within that range, and tend to see a higher volume of patients with breast cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, head and neck cancers, brain tumors, and lymphomas.
