Patient Care
Columbia’s Division of Breast, Melanoma, and Soft Tissue Surgery offers patients a comprehensive list of programs for diagnosing, treating, preventing, and recovering from all forms of breast cancer and melanoma. In addition to the full range of traditional surgical and reconstructive procedures, our patients get access to state-of-the-art treatments like laser ablation therapy, intraoperative radiation, and IL-2 immunotherapy. We also offer a collection of nonsurgical programs designed to help guide and support our patients through every step of their treatment and recovery.
