Overview

I am a medical oncologist who treats colorectal, pancreatic, and esophagogastric cancers while conducting research in tumor immunology and immunotherapy. My interest in oncology stems from experience in a cancer vaccine laboratory and working with oncologists during my undergraduate degree, who inspired my curiosity when I did not have scientists or doctors in my family. I conduct primarily laboratory-based and translational research, with the goal of finding new immunotherapeutic options supported by precision biomarkers to identify patients. In the clinic, I aim to treat my patients with innovative therapies, learn more about their cancer through research, and offer understanding through a shared decision-making process. Outside of work, I play guitar and trumpet, work on cars, and love to travel with my family.

Dr. Devito is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Liver Cancer. His top areas of expertise are Anal Cancer, Melanoma, Pancreatic Cancer, and Familial Colorectal Cancer.

His clinical research consists of co-authoring 22 peer reviewed articles and participating in 1 clinical trial. MediFind looks at clinical research from the past 15 years.
