Oncology Service Line Updates

By Amanda Musser, system vice president of oncology operations, Premier Health

Please welcome Dr. Jehad Almasri to our Premier Physician Network Premier Blood and Cancer Center.  He will be located at Atrium Medical Center and Miami Valley Hospital South. Dr. Almasri will lead the blood cancer disease site team.

In addition, the oncology service line is focused on the quality of care provided to each patient. As we continue to grow our oncology service line, we have decided to develop disease-specific meetings to focus on best practices and program development. Below are the current disease-specific sites and physician chairs.
