Stomach cancer

Stomach cancer is fairly uncommon (the 19th most common cancer in the U.S.). In the United States, there is no routine screening for upper GI cancers, and there are few symptoms in the early stages. There are several different types of stomach cancer, and each cancer is treated individually. Tests such as the endoscopic ultrasound offer important details to help your oncologist and surgeon determine the best treatment for you.

Our comprehensive multispecialty team diagnoses and treats more upper GI cancer cases than any other hospital in the region. We perform approximately 20 major surgeries for stomach cancer each year, and with these high volumes have improved patient and disease outcomes.

Treatment options

Small, early-stage tumors benefit from certain treatments, while later-stage cancer may require more extensive surgery, targeted chemotherapy and radiation. Our multidisciplinary team of experts will consult with you and your loved ones when it comes to diagnosing and treating your stomach cancer. We provide the experience, technology and personalized treatment options to help you achieve the best possible outcome.
