 Gynecologic Cancer Program
Aurora's comprehensive gynecologic cancer program offers the most
treatments for gynecologic cancer in Wisconsin and is lead by 2
board-certified, fellowship-trained gynecologic oncologists.
A gynecologic oncologist specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of
gynecologic cancers. There are fewer than 15 board-certified,
fellowship-trained gynecologic oncologists in the state and Aurora's 2
gynecologic oncologists see patients at Aurora St. Luke's Medical Center,
the Aurora Women's Pavilion at Aurora West Allis Medical Center and Aurora BayCare Medical Center.
Aurora physicians were the 1st in the state to perform robotic-assisted
gynecologic surgery, a new minimally invasive approach. And as principal
investigators with the national Gynecologic Oncology Group, they make the
latest cancer treatments available to patients through clinical research
trials before they're widely available elsewhere.
The program brings together experts in various disciplines to address all
of the patient's needs – physical, emotional and social – with customized
treatments and resources such as the Vince Lombardi Cancer Clinic.
To make cancer care as simple and personal as possible, Aurora provides
patients with a single point of contact, a gynecologic cancer coordinator. A
gynecologic cancer coordinator acts as your advisor and advocate throughout
the diagnostic, treatment and follow-up process.
