Hi, I'm Dr. Prioty Islam, a leukemia specialist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
I grew up with two powerful influences. My father, an engineer, sparked my curiosity about science and discovery. My mother showed me the importance of treating others with empathy. To me, being a good doctor means bringing those perspectives into every patient I meet.
I treat people with leukemia, especially chronic lymphocytic leukemia, or CLL. Every person comes with different goals, priorities, and circumstances. My job is to listen to you and partner with you to build a plan, together.
I’m so optimistic about the future of leukemia care. Advancements are happening every day, often because of the clinical trials here at MSK. These trials don’t just represent progress that’s coming years down the road—they can be new possibilities for you today, and often years before they’re widely available.
I know this is a vulnerable time for you. My hope is that as you go through treatment, you see me as your trusted guide, so you can stay focused on being yourself.
