Suggested oncology search pathway

Your answers indicate the type of specialist and cancer-center resources that may be useful to investigate.

1. Suggested specialist

2. Search NCI-designated cancer centers

NCI-designated cancer centers can be useful when specialized expertise, multidisciplinary care or clinical-trial access is important.

Search NCI-designated cancer centers

3. Verify physician certification

Before selecting a physician, verify the doctor's specialty certification and credentials through an established physician-certification resource.

Check ABMS physician certification

4. Search clinical trials

If clinical-trial access is relevant, search studies by cancer type, treatment and location.

Search ClinicalTrials.gov

5. Investigate cancer-center accreditation

The American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer accredits cancer programs using standards covering cancer care and program quality.

6. Questions to ask an oncologist

  • How often do you treat this specific cancer?
  • Do you specialize in this cancer subtype?
  • What treatment options would you consider?
  • What biomarker or molecular tests are relevant?
  • Are there appropriate clinical trials?
  • Would a multidisciplinary tumor-board review be appropriate?
  • Would you recommend a second opinion?
  • How would the treatment plan change if the cancer progresses?

7. Prepare for a second opinion

Consider obtaining copies of your pathology report, imaging, laboratory results, operative reports and previous treatment records before the consultation.

If molecular or biomarker testing has already been performed, bring those reports as well.

Important: This selector does not diagnose cancer, rank individual oncologists or determine which treatment is medically appropriate. It is an educational search tool. Physician availability, credentials, insurance participation, cancer-specific expertise and appointment requirements should be independently verified.
About this tool: The selector is intended to help users organize their search for U.S. oncology care. NCI designation, accreditation or board certification does not by itself establish that a particular physician or center is the best choice for an individual patient.
