I’ve always been guided by a heart for service that is grounded in my faith.
Hi, I’m Dr. Nancy Lee, a radiation oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. I care for patients with head and neck cancers, including those found in thyroid and salivary glands. I also treat certain skin cancers, osteoarthritis and rare, noncancerous tumors.
My main goal always is to give the most effective treatment that’s the least intense. I want to protect you from side effects and help you live the best quality of life possible during and after your treatment.
You will receive the exact dose of radiation you need, not more and not less. I use today’s most advanced technology, including proton beam therapy, to target cancer cells with extreme accuracy.
I also lead clinical trials that create new personalized options for patients. People come from around the world to be treated by my team because of our innovative approaches.
But my role is more than prescribing radiation therapy. It’s about offering you compassion and guidance. I want you to know that I’m dedicated to helping you and your family, because cancer affects you both.
My years of experience and constant pursuit of better treatments should give you strength, hope, and confidence that you’re in the right place to receive the best care.
