Overview

I've been working in healthcare for over two decades, and what I like most about it is getting to know my patients well. When someone is told they have cancer, it's incredibly scary. But the good news is that there are better treatments now that can provide hope. My team and I make an effort to understand our patients, learn what's important to them, and support them through the challenging times. We use my knowledge and experience to lead a team of different experts who collaborate to try to cure cancer when possible and create treatment plans that align with the patient's preferences. I'm also well-versed in new and upcoming treatments due to my work in cancer research. I can explain them in simple terms so that everyone can understand, which helps patients feel more confident and engaged. I specialize in treating skin cancers like melanoma, Merkel cell carcinoma, and cancers that arise in the gastrointestinal tract, including colon and rectum. Outside of work, I'm a family man with a loving wife and two kids. We thoroughly enjoy living in North Carolina, with its beautiful scenery and outdoor activities such as hiking and sports. I've had the privilege of helping many patients, and I look forward to being there for you too.

I am convinced that caring for patients with malignant hematologic diseases requires not only up-to-date medical knowledge, but also an understanding of the individual patient's needs and circumstances. I encourage patients to take an active role in their treatment and recovery and I work with them to develop an individualized treatment plan that includes the most advanced therapies available today. My practice focuses primarily on disorders of the lymphatic system (Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia). As an integral part of my clinical activities, I am dedicated to teaching young physicians at all levels of training and educating the next generation of hematologists. Dr. Stefanovic is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Marginal Zone Lymphoma (MZL). Her top areas of expertise are Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia, Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL), Marginal Zone Lymphoma (MZL), Large-Cell Immunoblastic Lymphoma, and Bone Marrow Aspiration.
