Robert Lentz, MD

I am interested in Gastrointestinal Cancers (Colorectal, Pancreatic, Gastric, Esophageal, Hepatocellular, Gallbladder, Bile Duct, Anal, Abdominal Neuroendocrine, Abdominal Carcinoma of Unknown Primary), Drug Development (Experimental Therapeutics / Clinical Trials) and Translational Research.

Care Philosophy

I strive to provide patient-focused, personalized, multi-disciplinary care for patients with gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. Our team of specialized providers in Medical Oncology (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapies), Surgical Oncology, Radiation Oncology, Pathology, Molecular Pathology, Radiology, Interventional Radiology, Nuclear Medicine, Gastroenterology (both Hepatology and Interventional Endoscopy), Nutrition, and Integrative Medicine work together to achieve the best outcomes for our patients. We have weekly cancer-specific multidisciplinary clinics in pancreas, colorectal, gastroesophageal, liver, and neuroendocrine cancers where patients can meet all of their specialty providers in a single clinic visit.
