Dr. Subhasis Misra believes the patient-doctor relationship is a very sacred one that involves trust and faith. He emphasizes, “Patients are not mere statistics, but individuals who deserve the best possible care that caters to their physical, emotional and spiritual needs.”
As a surgical oncologist at our cancer hospital in Illinois, Dr. Misra works with a team of oncologists and other clinicians to provide comprehensive cancer treatment. He performs advanced surgery for cancers of the liver, pancreas, esophagus, stomach, and colon, including Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy procedures, as well as surgery for other diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. Additionally he performs complex surgical procedures to treat breast cancer, sarcoma, melanoma, and endocrine tumors.
“I believe medicine is a team event, and that a team always achieves more success than the individuals it comprises, says Dr. Misra. “And, I am a strong believer that through more sustained, quality research we can hope to find a cure for cancer and also make meaningful decisions about clinical care.”
Dr. Misra provides his patients with easy-to-understand information about their disease and treatment options. He strives to give patients the confidence to make the best possible decisions about their care. He also supports them during their decision-making process and respects their choices.
