Dr. Samuel Singer, MD, FACS, is a surgical oncologist specializing exclusively in the diagnosis and treatment of soft tissue sarcoma, and one of only a few surgeons in the world with a practice devoted solely to this group of cancers. He leads the Soft Tissue Sarcoma Disease Management Team at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, a multidisciplinary group of soft tissue pathologists, medical oncologists, and radiation oncologists who collaborate to develop individualized treatment plans for each patient. His years of focused clinical experience have allowed him to devise surgical techniques that improve the ability to completely remove these tumors, and he brings special expertise in multimodality treatment, combining surgery with radiation, chemotherapy, or targeted therapy when appropriate.
