Chief Residents' Message

Northwestern’s Radiation Oncology Residency Program offers a blend of high clinical volume and a wide breadth of treatment modalities through Feinberg-affiliated Northwestern Memorial Hospital (NMH), as well as research opportunities and education/mentorship from our faculty.

Our clinical experience is further strengthened by seeing a diverse patient population and attending informative multidisciplinary tumor boards. What makes our department unique is the collegiality among the faculty, residents and all Northwestern Medicine clinical staff. Everyone contributes to a team focused on creating a positive experience for the NMH patients. 

Finally, our program is located in the heart of downtown Chicago. We often coordinate group events after work hours, taking advantage of all the city has to offer.
