Ovarian cancer is best treated by specialists with expertise in gynecologic oncology. Women treated early by a gynecologic oncologist have twice the survival rates of those not treated by a cancer specialist. Inova Schar Cancer Institute and Inova Women's Services work together seamlessly to provide a comprehensive treatment program for women with cancer of the cervix, ovaries, uterus or other reproductive organs. Our multidisciplinary team of gynecologic oncologists, radiation oncologists, radiologists, and pathologists coordinate the best care for each patient from diagnosis to treatment to monitoring for recurrence.
