    Miriam A. Knoll, MD, joined Northwell Health in 2024 as a radiation oncologist. She is also a clinical assistant professor of medicine at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell.After attending NYU Grossman School of Medicine, she completed a residency at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, before working at the John Theurer Cancer Center at Hackensack University Medical Center and Montefiore Nyack Hospital. She chose cancer care as a specialty in large part because she saw how collaborative that process needs to be for strong patient outcomes.I love working with a radiation oncology team, because that's truly what each patient needs, she says. Each of us contributes expertise and a different perspective, and that adds up to well-rounded care for each patient.At Northwell, Dr. Knoll's main focus is providing palliative radiation treatment. She communicates to patients how effective treatment can be for treating pain, and with far fewer side effects than many might expect. This type of therapy can really make a difference in helping people feel better, no matter where they are in their cancer journey.In addition to direct care, Dr. Knoll has worked to advance the field and to broaden patient knowledge and access by co-founding and serving at CEO of the Jewish Orthodox Women's Medical Association (JOWMA), as well as publishing articles in both academic journals and consumer publications such as JAMA Oncology, IJROBP, Advances in Radiation Oncology, Huffington Post and Forbes. She is an international speaker and writer focusing on medical care, the physician workforce, women in medicine, and social media in medicine. Dr. Knoll serves on national cancer committees at American Society of Clinical Oncology, American Society for Radiation Oncology, NRG Oncology, and the RTOG Foundation. She serves as a section editor for the journal Advances in Radiation Oncology.Over the course of her career, Dr. Knoll has learned from patients how valuable it is for those going through cancer to have a robust support system around them. That means family and friends and other patients, as well as a cancer care medical team.Ultimately, there are aspects of cancer that we can't control, although we step in and do as much as we can, she says. What we can control is offering as much support as possible so patients can draw on their own resilience for treatment. I see my role as being there for each patient on a personal level, while helping advance research and oncology care in a broader way. Dr. Knoll is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Stomach Cancer. She is also highly rated in 1 other condition, according to our data. Her clinical expertise encompasses Breast Cancer, Lung Cancer, Pleuropulmonary Blastoma, and Posterior Fossa Tumor. Dr. Knoll is board certified in American Board Of Radiology/Radiation Oncology.

    What is the definition of Stomach Cancer?

    Stomach cancer occurs when the mucous cells lining the stomach develop abnormalities and become cancerous. The most common type of stomach cancer is adenocarcinoma, which accounts for 90% of all stomach cancer cases. Other rare types of stomach cancer occur in different areas of the stomach and include gastric lymphomas, gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), and carcinoid tumors.  Gastric lymphomas are cancers of the stomach’s immune system tissue. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) can be either non-cancerous (benign) or cancerous and form in a special type of stomach wall cells called the interstitial cells of Cajal, which is a type of muscle tissue. Carcinoid tumors originate in the endocrine and nervous systems and are slow-growing. Stomach cancer is rare before age 50, mostly occurs in individuals over the age of 60, and is common in Japan. While high rates of stomach cancer still occur globally, the overall rates have significantly decreased over the past twenty years.  Stomach cancer is categorized based on the following stages: Stage 0 – Carcinoma in Situ is where cell abnormalities occur in the lining of the stomach (mucosa) which may become cancerous and spread (metastasis). Stage 1 (IA and IB) – Cancer has developed in the lining of the stomach (mucosa) and may have spread to the next layer of the stomach (submucosa); Cancer has developed in the lining of the stomach (mucosa) and may have spread to the next layer of the stomach (submucosa) and 1 or 2 near lymph nodes or the stomach muscle layer. Stage II (IIA and IIB) – Cancer may have spread to next lining of stomach (submucosa) and 3- to-6 near lymph nodes; or spread to stomach muscle layer and 1 or 2 near lymph nodes; or has spread to layer of stomach connective tissue. Cancer may have spread to outer lining of stomach (submucosa) and 7-to-15 near lymph nodes; or has spread to stomach muscle layer and 3-to-6 lymph nodes; or has spread to layer of stomach connective tissue and 1 or 2 near lymph nodes; or has spread to the outer wall of the stomach (serosa). Stage III (IIIA, IIIB, and IIIC) – Cancer has spread to stomach muscle and 7-to-15 near lymph nodes; or spread to layer of stomach connective tissue (subserosa) and 3-to-6 near lymph nodes; or spread to layer of stomach connective tissue (subserosa) and 1-to-6 near lymph nodes; or spread to near organs, such as abdominal wall, adrenal gland, back of abdomen, colon, diaphragm, kidney, liver, small intestine, or pancreas. Cancer has spread to next layer of stomach (submucosa) or stomach muscle layer and 16 or more near lymph nodes; or spread to layer of stomach connective tissue (subserosa) or the stomach wall (serosa) and 7-to-15 near lymph nodes; or has spread to near organs, such as abdominal wall, adrenal gland, back of abdomen, colon, diaphragm, kidney, liver, small intestine, or pancreas and 1-to-6 near lymph nodes. Cancer has spread to layer of stomach connective tissue (subserosa) or stomach wall (serosa) and 16 or more near lymph nodes; or has spread to near organs, such as abdominal wall, adrenal gland, back of abdomen, colon, diaphragm, kidney, liver, small intestine, or pancreas and 7 or more near lymph nodes. Stage IV – Cancer has spread to other parts of the body (distant metastasis), such as distant lymph nodes, the liver, lungs, or peritoneum (lining of abdomen). While stomach cancer generally progresses slowly, the stage of stomach cancer determines its treatment and outcome (prognosis).

    When should I see a Stomach Cancer doctor near Fresh Meadows, NY?

    There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

    • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
    • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
    • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
    • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
    • You want a second opinion.  

    What should I consider when choosing a Stomach Cancer doctor near Fresh Meadows, NY?

    It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

    How does MediFind rank Stomach Cancer doctors near Fresh Meadows, NY?

    MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

    What types of insurance are accepted by Stomach Cancer doctors near Fresh Meadows, NY?

    Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

    How can I book an appointment online with a Stomach Cancer doctor near Fresh Meadows, NY?

    MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Stomach Cancer doctor search results page. 

    Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Stomach Cancer doctor?

    Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.
