The CyberKnife Team at Stamford Hospital

Our physicians and staff are committed to providing the most effective, up to date treatment available while caring for each patient as an individual. We work closely with referring physicians and surgeons to design a specific treatment plan for each patient—and with the addition of the CyberKnife Center we continue to expand our mission of providing the most comprehensive cancer care available at Stamford Hospital.

Our multidisciplinary team includes top radiation oncologists, surgeons, medical physicists, radiation therapists, nurses, and a medical dosimetrist. Patients benefit from an approach that combines a high level of medical and technical expertise with care that is tailored to individual needs at each step, from the initial consultation through the treatment planning process and treatment delivery in a caring and supportive setting.
