Dedicated to the treatment of gynocologic cancers

General Info

The University Gynecologic Oncology Practice is part of the University of Colorado Cancer Center - the only National Cancer Institute- designated Cancer Center in the region. Women requiring medical care for malignant conditions have access to enrollment in clinical cancer trials, considered the leading edge in oncology research. The Gynecologic Oncology Practice interacts closely with the medical oncologists and radiation oncologists to provide the best interdisciplinary care for women with these cancers. Most patients with these problems are initially evaluated by their primary care physician or gynecologist. When a cancer is suspected, or a complex problem is identified, patients are then referred to the Gynecologic Oncology Practice for evaluation. A detailed history is obtained from each patient followed by a complete physical examination. Any x-rays and pathology reports are reviewed as well. The management plan is discussed with the woman and her family and coordinated with the assistance of the Practice Case Manager. If surgery is indicated one of our physicians - Drs. Susan Davidson, Kian Behbahkt, Saketh Guntupalli, and Jaime Arruda - will perform the surgery. These physicians also direct the administration of chemotherapy, if indicated, providing continuity of care during the entire treatment period. Services are provided at: The University of Colorado Hospital The Anschutz Cancer Pavilion at the Anschutz Medical Campus University of Colorado at Lone Tree For more information, contact: Ms. Nancy McKee Business Services Manager For faculty biosketch, click on name.
