Nurse Practitioner
Desiree Robinson

I’m a nurse practitioner with more than 5 years of experience in caring for people with urological cancers. This includes prostate cancer, bladder cancer, and kidney cancer.

At Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), I provide support to patients and help them understand the treatment options available. I also help them understand the possible side effects of cancer and its treatment. I see patients at the Sidney Kimmel Center for Prostate and Urologic Cancers.

When patients meet with me, they are often concerned about their quality of life. I explain the treatment options to help patients make an informed decision about their care.

I chose a career in healthcare because of my love for science and because I wanted to make a difference. When I work with patients, I provide a safe and inclusive space.

When I am not working, I enjoy traveling and trying new foods.
