What is an oncologist?
An oncologist is a doctor who treats cancer. There are different types of oncologists who focus on specific kinds of treatments. Here are some examples:
- Medical oncologists use medications like chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapies to fight cancer.
- Surgical oncologists perform operations to remove cancerous tumors or tissue.
- Radiation oncologists use high-energy radiation to destroy cancer cells.
- Pediatric oncologists focus on treating children and teens with cancer.
- Geriatric oncologists work with people with cancer who are 65 and older.
- Gynecologic oncologists treat cancers in reproductive organs for individuals assigned female at birth.
- Hematologist-oncologists treat cancers of the blood, such as leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma.
Why am I being referred to an oncologist?
You may be referred to an oncologist if your primary care doctor suspects you have cancer or another serious condition that requires specialized treatment. Oncologists are experts in diagnosing and treating cancer, but they also manage other conditions like blood disorders or abnormal cell growths that aren’t cancerous. For example, some people are referred to a hematologist-oncologist for issues with blood cells.
What tests are performed by an oncologist?
Oncologists use a variety of tests to help diagnose cancer and other serious conditions. These tests help them understand what stage the cancer is in or if the cancer has spread. Common tests include:
- Blood tests to check for abnormal cells, proteins, or other markers that might suggest cancer.
- Biopsies, where a small tissue sample is taken from a suspected area to check for cancer cells.
- Imaging tests like CT scans, MRIs, X-rays, and PET scans, which help oncologists get a detailed picture of what’s happening inside the body.
What treatments are available to me?
The type of treatment you receive depends on the kind of cancer, its stage, and your overall health. Treatment usually begins soon after diagnosis, depending on how quickly care needs to start. Your oncologist will guide you through the different treatment options and help you decide on the best approach.

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.
