Dr. Matthew A. Manning

I was drawn to the field of oncology because cancer is a terrifying diagnosis for most people. It is one of those health issues that make people very nervous. I find great satisfaction working with cancer patients to help allay their fears and provide the best care possible. For me, it is rewarding to work with individuals who express so much courage in overcoming a difficult diagnosis. It is very rare that a patient comes alone to an appointment. Usually they have a spouse, son or daughter, a brother or sister, or a mother or father accompanying them. I spend a lot of time answering family member’s questions, who often provide a significant amount of care and support for their loved one. My job is to help educate both the patient and the family and to formulate a plan by which we can provide comprehensive care for all of the patient’s needs.

I am a radiation oncologist, and I primarily focus on treating patients with cancer of the brain, lung, and spine. I find great satisfaction meeting with patients and working to provide the best care possible.

Working together, my goal is provide the tools and understanding so that they feel comfortable in making treatment decisions.
