Care for cancers including mouth, throat, and voice box

The Duke Head and Neck Cancer Clinic employs a team approach to provide comprehensive medical care for each patient.

Specialists in the fields of surgery, radiation oncology, medical oncology, radiology, and pathology meet weekly to jointly examine each patient and formulate a treatment plan.

Our specialists draw upon decades of training and experience treating both routine and complex, unusual diseases.

They evaluate the benefits and drawbacks of various diagnostic and treatment regimens and map the most effective course of treatment for each individual.

Patient Involvement

Patients play an integral role in creating the treatment plan as well, deciding which options best fit their needs.

Our integrated team approach gives patients access to all the information they need to make informed, knowledgeable decisions.
