Refer a Gynecologic Oncology Patient

Karmanos Cancer Institute physicians are grateful to serve our region and value the relationship with community physicians when a referral to a comprehensive cancer center is needed. Our Gynecologic Cancer Team collaborates with referring physicians to quickly and accurately confirm a cancer diagnosis and identify the type and severity of the disease. In some cases, we can even rule out what appeared to be a potential cancer diagnosis. If treatment is needed, this communication with referring providers continues during and after your patient goes through treatment at Karmanos.

When to Send Patients to the Gynecologic Oncology MDT

• A new or recurrent gynecologic cancer diagnosis
• Vulvar, vaginal or cervical lesions suspicious for malignancy on pelvic exam
• Early cervical cancer interested in fertility-sparing surgery
• Pelvic masses and endometrial cancer interested in minimally invasive surgery
• A desire to initiate a second opinion
• Disease progression following any line of therapy
• Interest in participating in clinical trials at any stage of the cancer

We understand that you want the best for your patients. If you think referring to Karmanos’ Gynecologic Oncology Multidisciplinary Team is the best option for your patient, call the referring provider line or send a referral form.
