What medical change has impacted the field of cancer the most since you began practicing medicine?
Targeted therapies are the biggest change I have witnessed in oncology.
Why did you choose oncology?
I chose oncology for the research and scientific aspects.â€
Why did you choose Peoria, Illinois, to practice when you could have gone anywhere in the country?
My former boss trained with my current partner, John Kugler, so I came to Peoria.
Do you have any advice to give patients after they have been diagnosed with cancer?
My advice to patients with cancer: enjoy today, take one day at a time, and love your life.
