Dr. Auer is a Surgical Oncologist. This is a surgeon who only operates and looks after patients with cancer. While many surgeons operate on cancer patients, a Surgical Oncologist works closely with other cancer doctors, including medical oncologists and radiation oncologists. They are involved in creating standards of care for cancer surgery and research in cancer.
Dr. Auer is currently accepting new referrals for patients with a suspected or confirmed diagnosis of abdominal cancer of the stomach, small intestine, colon, rectum and liver, as well as soft tissue sarcoma, GI stromal tumors or undiagnosed abdominal masses. If you are a referring physician have a question about referring a patient, please give the office a call and we will try to help.
