Innovative Care with a Human Touch
Esophageal cancer is less common when compared to the top 10 most common cancers, but the number of new cases are on the rise at an alarming rate. It has become the eleventh leading cause of cancer death in the United States. (Source: https://seer.cancer.gov/statfacts/html/esoph.html). Identifying high risk patients, early diagnosis and treatment in a timely manner is key to changing this paradigm.
Our specialists have earned a reputation in the Bay Area in diagnosing and treating esophageal cancer using the most advanced techniques within a team approach to treat esophageal cancer.
