LVH Hematology Oncology-1240 Cedar Crest
Philosophy of care | Personalized care starts during my first meeting with a patient and family. That's when I get to know the patient as completely as possible. I want to know about the patient's concerns, values and support system so I can provide care that is specific to him or her. | Also, I am a member of the skin and soft tissue cancer multidisciplinary consultation team. Together we review your diagnostic information and give you a written opinion reflecting the scope of your condition and recommendations for your best course of care. | Why I entered medicine | When I was young, I didn't like seeing doctors. It created a lot of anxiety for me. Now that I'm older, I can relate to the way people feel, especially when they're coping with the emotions caused by a serious condition like cancer. My grandmother died of uterine cancer in the 1960s. During her battle, I felt helpless. That is what attracted me to cancer research. Now I see the amazing progress we are making through cancer research. | Community involvement | I served on the state board of the American Cancer Society. Today, I take more of a grassroots approach to offer my support. I participate in events, such as 5K runs, that benefit charities.

While I rely on evidence-based practices, I am passionate about integrating the latest advancements in cancer research. I strive for compassionate care and meaningful personal connections. My commitment lies in building trusting, collaborative relationships and empowering you through education and shared decision-making to actively participate in your care. | Why I entered medicine | I entered medicine because of a deep desire to make a meaningful difference in people's lives. The opportunity to combine science, problem-solving and human connection to improve health and alleviate suffering inspired me to pursue this path. | Community involvement | I am engaged with my local community, focusing on raising awareness about cancer prevention and promoting the importance of a healthy lifestyle. | Personal interests | I truly cherish moments with family and friends; they bring so much joy and fulfillment to my life. One of my favorite activities is playing chess with my son. It’s always a fun way to engage in friendly competition and stimulate our minds. When it’s time to relax, I love watching Netflix and sports. Dr. Hafeez is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC).
