Medical oncologist and hematologist Cherie Tan has recently joined Hematology-Oncology Associates of CNY (HOA). She will work in the new Camillus Cancer Center, which is scheduled to Sept. 16. Until then she is caring for patients in the practice’s Brittonfield location.
A native of Toronto, Tan is board-certified in internal medicine and a graduate of University of Toledo College of Medicine. She completed an internal medicine residency at Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, in New Brunswick, New Jersey, and specialty training (fellowship) in hematology and oncology at University of Maryland Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center, where she served as chief fellow. While completing her training, Tan also worked in mixed tumor and bone marrow transplant services at the University of Maryland Medical Center.
“We’re honored that Dr. Tan chose to join HOA,” says Maryann Roefaro, HOA’s chief executive officer. “In the short time she has been with us, she has already demonstrated her complete commitment to providing patients with the best possible care for the body, mind and spirit.”
