Our talented and renowned academic staff are recognized as patient advocates, pioneers in research, and leaders in academic radiation oncology. As importantly, they are dedicated educators who are ever approachable and down-to-earth. We believe it is the academic staff, coupled with our unwavering commitment to cutting-edge technology, basic and translational research, clinical trials, and multidisciplinary patient-centered cancer care that create a dynamic environment in which to train.

Our residents, the centerpiece of our Department, are compassionate, intelligent, and accomplished both inside and outside of the hospital-- and truly represent the best and brightest in medicine. Hardly a day goes by where they fail to inspire us and contribute to a culture of unparalleled inquiry, creativity, and collegiality. The opportunity to nurture their individual career development is a tremendous privilege and a responsibility we take extremely seriously at KUMS.

Our residents are encouraged to think critically and pushed to achieve more than what they think they could otherwise on their own. By imparting them with self-confidence and providing them with the steadfast foundation for lifelong learning, we aim to help our residents attain their full potential as healers, investigators, scientists, and leaders in medicine. We are incredibly proud of the Department of Radiation Oncology at KUMS and our residency program. Come to know us, and you'll see why.
