Thillai Sekar, MD
We 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.

Get to Know Me
I am a diagnostic radiologist with years of experience in interpreting imaging of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis. I have presented on imaging and been involved with problem-solving at multiple tumor boards. Over the years, I have had exposure to imaging for various types of cancer, including complex cases. I use this accumulated knowledge to benefit all our patients.
My personal experience with cancer has made me very familiar with the course of cancer imaging and treatment. From the perspective of a diagnostic radiologist, I know accurate imaging reports are important for successful treatment and understand the anxiety that patients may experience related to these procedures and results.
My approach is patient centered. I am committed to producing high-quality imaging reports that help achieve successful treatment outcomes and minimize patient worry.
I'm a radiologist, which is a doctor with special training in using imaging to diagnose and treat disease. Imaging includes X-rays, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
