Dr. Jessica Wilcox cares for people with brain tumors and neurologic complications of cancer at MSK in Manhattan and MSK Bergen, leading metastases research to improve treatments.
During college, I worked in a neurosurgery clinic, where I first met patients with brain tumors. I was struck by their strength and resilience, as well as the courage of their families. That experience shaped me and it’s why I chose to dedicate my career to understanding the complexities of the brain.
Hi, I’m Dr. Jessica Wilcox, a neurologist and neuro-oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. I care for people with primary brain tumors, metastatic cancer in the brain and the cerebrospinal fluid, and the neurological effects of cancer, such as seizures or nerve damage.
What brings me the most fulfillment is building strong, lasting relationships with you and your family. I believe deeply in making decisions together. I will treat your disease, and I will always honor what is most important to you.
At MSK, we have the resources and expertise to provide you with world-class treatment, and we’ll take the time to know who you are as a person. Here, we are fully committed to every part of your care, to helping you understand your treatment plan, to coordinating with specialists, and to being there for you and your family in your most challenging moments.
