Dr. Joshua Budhu cares for people with brain and central nervous system tumors at MSK in Manhattan and MSK Westchester, combining expert treatment with research on health equity.
I was inspired to dedicate my life to medicine after losing my eldest brother to a preventable condition. It was a tragedy linked to his socioeconomic status, an experience that continues to guide the way I practice medicine and drives my research.
Hi, I’m Dr. Josh Budhu, a neuro-oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. I specialize in treating cancers of the brain, central nervous system tumors, and brain metastases.
I love working at MSK with a team of experts at the top of their fields, all dedicated to providing the best care for you. You’ll have many doctors focused on your case to provide both the latest treatments and support through deep personal connection.
I will listen to your story, help you explore your options, and clearly explain them so we can come up with the best care plan for you. I want you to always feel respected and heard, and there will be a team of us working together to help you navigate the physical, emotional, financial, and personal challenges that come with a cancer diagnosis.
Because of my own family’s experience, I am committed to improving access to good healthcare, making sure it is fair and inclusive for everyone. Helping you is my life’s work.
