BJC HealthCare works with Washington University physicians, BJC Medical Group, and providers across the region to deliver extraordinary care. Cancer surgery can be lifesaving and is often a key part of cancer treatment. Our surgical oncology team provides a full range of surgery options for all types of solid tumor cancers. As our patient, you benefit from: 

• Multidisciplinary team: We bring multiple experts together to develop the best cancer treatment plan for you. Surgical oncologists partner with medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists and oncology nurses to ensure all your needs are met.

• Minimally invasive options: Our surgeons use the latest minimally invasive methods, including laparoscopic, robot-assisted and laser surgery options. These techniques offer a faster recovery with smaller incisions and less pain.

• Compassionate care: It’s normal to feel overwhelmed and anxious about surgery. Our team takes the time to answer your questions and provide the emotional or mental health support you need.

• National recognition: Our cancer care includes the world-leading Siteman Cancer Center. U.S. News & World Report consistently ranks Siteman among the top cancer centers in the nation.

• Nurse navigators: We make cancer treatment easier so you can focus on healing. You receive a dedicated nurse navigator who schedules appointments and provides you with resources for transportation, emotional support and other needs.
