Philosophy of care | As a surgical oncologist, I’m passionate about beating cancer. We hope to eradicate it and do everything possible to maximize the patient’s quality of life. I talk to patients in a language they can understand. When I make a treatment recommendation, I put myself in their shoes and tell them what I would do if I were faced with these options. | Why I entered medicine | I think I was born to be a doctor. My father was a doctor, and I was fascinated with anatomy as a child. I had anatomy models and would constantly play with them. During my first surgical rotation in medical school, I was hooked. Surgery is anatomy. The intensity, teamwork and ability to fix problems in the operating room is what drives me. | Community involvement | I find it deeply gratifying to support organizations that inspire me. I’m a long-time donor to Semper Fi, a group that gives financial assistance and support to post-9/11 injured veterans and their families. I feel strongly about supporting our military service members who sacrifice so much to protect us. I’m also an enthusiastic backer of Yellowstone National Park. I went there as a kid and later took my own kids when they were young. I’ve always been in awe of Yellowstone’s majesty and beauty. | Personal interests | I enjoy spending time with my girls (my wife and three daughters) and my boys (my two dogs). I stay physically fit by running and working out at home. I enjoy landscaping and reading the classics, and I’m an avid Philadelphia sports fan.

Anwaar Saeed, MD, is an Associate Professor of Medicine and the Chief of the Gastrointestinal (GI) Medical Oncology Program at the University of Pittsburgh, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC), and UPMC Hillman Cancer Center. She also serves as the Vice Chair of the Colorectal Cancer Committee of the NSABP Foundation.

She has published more than 150 peer reviewed papers, posters and book chapters, and have led more than 40 clinical trials, focused on various immune modulatory regimens including but not limited to immune checkpoint inhibitor combinations with chemotherapy, other checkpoint inhibitors, antibody drug conjugates, bi-specific T cell engagers (BiTE), angiogenesis inhibitors, as well as immunotherapy combinations with regional approaches like stereotactic radiosurgery and intensity-modulated radiation therapy. She currently leads several investigator-initiated trials focused on novel targeted immunotherapy combinations including the ongoing phase I/II CAMILLA multicohort study looking at Cabozantinib plus Durvalumab with or without Tremelimumab in GI malignancies. Results from phase I/II part of the CAMILLA led to the development of the currently ongoing global pivotal trial, STELLAR 303, in patients with previously treated microsatellite stable colorectal cancer.

Philosophy of care | Effective medical care begins with a deep understanding of each patient’s circumstances and needs. The physician-patient relationship is foundational and must be a two-way dialogue built on trust and respect. I prioritize learning what truly matters to you and your family. I offer treatment recommendations and options that align with your values, preferences and goals. While my clinical focus is on blood disorders and blood cancers, listening carefully and tailoring care to patients is the heart of everything I do. I provide guidance and recommendations, but the decisions ultimately belong to you, the patient. I strongly believe in a team-based approach, where collaboration and communication yield the best outcomes. | Why I entered medicine | When I started college, medicine was the farthest thing from my mind; I was an economics major and took the MCAT on a whim. To my surprise, I scored far better than expected for someone without a science background, and that led me to medical school. Looking back, I can’t imagine doing anything else. Medicine – and caring for patients – has become my true passion. My path into the field was unconventional but led me exactly where I was meant to be. Practicing hematology and oncology isn’t just a career for me – it’s the only thing I can see myself doing. | Community involvement | As a part of cancer center leadership, I participate in local events and charities for patients with cancer and blood diseases, including speaking to the leukemia/lymphoma society. I am particularly fond of events centered around running for cancer charities. | Personal interests | Running is a personal passion of mine – second only to medicine and my family.

Philosophy of care | My goal is to provide the best care I can. I know it can be difficult seeking assistance with your health. I feel that communication is a priority, and I want you to feel comfortable with me. I will always do my very best to take great care of you in and out of the operating room. | Community involvement | American Cancer Society, Wings of Hope, Relay for Life | Personal interests | Cancer care.
