Brandon M. Roane, M.D.

General Summary

Growing up, Dr. Roane spent a lot of time in the hospital with his mom, who was a staff assistant to physicians. At an early age, he was fascinated by the patient-doctor relationship. The level of trust a patient places in their physician is an honor and something that’s motivated him throughout his career. The work he gets to do with cancer patients is extremely gratifying and the specialty of gynecologic oncology allows him to be involved in both the medical and surgical aspect of care. Comprehensive patient care is something Dr. Roane is extremely passionate about. His goal is to not only provide cutting edge clinical care, but to ensure a thorough understanding of the treatment plan. This includes the patient, as well as the support system involved in her medical care. Dr. Roane’s experiences with people from different walks of life has given him the tools to relate to patients and their families on many levels. He feels it is important to recognize the patient as a whole, as the science of medicine is only a portion of the process needed in comprehensive care. Each patient is unique and it is important to acknowledge this to fully understand the factors that can impact clinical care.
