Gynecologic oncology

Cases of cervical cancer—the most common gynecologic cancer—have decreased significantly over the last 40 years, thanks to an increase in women receiving annual pap smears, screenings, and the HPV vaccine. That’s why our team at Dignity Health Medical Foundation provides advanced testing and diagnostics to empower patients as they take action for their health. Our dedicated gynecologic cancer specialists provide compassionate care that is tailored to each patient, wherever they may be on their cancer journey. 

Our multidisciplinary team of specialists provides innovative care for a wide range of gynecologic cancers, using leading research and state-of-the-art technology to deliver precise diagnoses. We offer a range of diagnostic services, including biopsies, imaging, pelvic exams, and genetic testing, that are essential to early detection. Gynecologic cancer patients can receive personalized care with both non-surgical and surgical treatment options.
