As a leader in cancer research, Karmanos is able to offer patients access to innovative treatments and clinical trials that are often times not available anywhere else.
To offer hope and longer life to patients with all types of cancer, Karmanos offers the latest types of therapy through our clinical trials program. Through clinical trials, we are creating new knowledge about how therapies fight cancer and provide national leadership in testing these new therapies.
We understand that cancer is a complex disease that demands complex care. We provide each patient with a dynamic, carefully constructed treatment plan focused on their specific cancer and their unique needs.
We listen to you to design a plan that provides you with respect, compassionate care and is responsive to your emotional and practical concerns.
Brooke Spencer MD, MPH is a board-certified radiation oncologist with more than a decade of experience. We are excited to have her on the team at the McLaren Proton Therapy Center and the Karmanos Cancer Institute at McLaren Flint.
Watching her mother bravely fight cancer inspired Dr. Spencer to become a radiation oncologist. She is driven to meet the needs of patients, especially when it comes to quality of life not only after, but during treatment.
“The goal is always to optimize treatment,” said Dr. Spencer. “The most rewarding part of my work as an oncologist is providing one of the most technologically advanced treatments -proton therapy- for patients who have cancer.”
Dr. Spencer completed an onsite proton therapy clinical training course at Penn Radiation Medical Institute in Philadelphia. She is a clinical investigator in several proton clinical trials that are currently open at Mclaren Proton Therapy Center.
