Simone Krebs, MD, MS
Nuclear Medicine Physician & Physician-Scientist
My Role at MSKWe post reviews for MSK healthcare providers who have at least 30 patient experience surveys completed. If you do not see reviews for a provider, it may be because they do not yet have enough survey responses, or the provider may not be part of the group of healthcare providers included in the survey.
Only outpatient providers are included in the survey. Healthcare providers who only work in the hospital or in urgent care are not included in the survey. Pathologists or researchers who do not provide direct care to patients do not have reviews.

About Me
- Assistant Attending Radiologist
I am an American Board of Nuclear Medicine–certified physician-scientist trained in molecular imaging and targeted radiotherapy. I have extensive experience in nuclear medicine and adoptive cell therapy and frequently work with colleagues across departments at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to take an interdisciplinary approach to disease management.

My research leverages my training in translational and clinical research and currently focuses on tracking adoptively transferred cells and evaluating theranostic approaches (imaging combined with targeted therapy) for neuroendocrine and brain tumors, and for other cancers. Through my research, I hope to contribute to the exciting field of radiotheranostics, with a focus on T cell therapy, which is starting to show its great potential to improve outcomes for people with cancer.
A nuclear medicine physician is a doctor with special training in using radioactive drugs to diagnose and treat disease.
A physician-scientist is a doctor who also is a researcher.
