Women's Cancer Program

The Women's Cancer Program at Mayo Clinic conducts cutting-edge, innovative research to improve treatment management options for women with breast and gynecologic cancers. This multidisciplinary program brings together researchers and clinicians to further the current understanding of women's cancers, provide compassionate care, and educate patients and their families about women's cancers. Researchers in gynecologic surgery, medical and radiation oncology, medical genetics, pathology and other specialties work together to give women with cancer the widest possible range of treatment options. As part of the Mayo Clinic Cancer Center, the Women's Cancer Program is poised to offer innovative new therapies available through clinical trials. The Women's Cancer Program also provides psychosocial support classes, a resource center, and educational programs for patients and their families.
