Meet Dr. Sanford
By treating a number of gastrointestinal areas, which include the pancreas, liver, anus, esophagus, and stomach, Nina Sanford, M.D., Assistant Professor of Radiation Oncology, is doing what she loves – helping others. She chose to pursue a career in radiation oncology because of the combination of high-quality technical care with meaningful patient interactions.
“Cancer treatment is a rapidly advancing medical field and it is exciting to be at the forefront of this revolution at UT Southwestern,” she says. “I strive with every patient to apply these new technologies in radiation therapy in a humane and meaningful way.”
Dr. Sanford joins a highly skilled gastrointestinal cancer care
team after completing her radiation oncology residency at Harvard/Brigham and
Women’s Hospital/Massachusetts General Hospital.
In addition to her clinical practice, Dr. Sanford is involved with
several clinical trials that assess the combination of high-dose radiation
therapy with immunotherapy. Her research interests also include disparities in
access to health care and pan-cancer outcomes research using large databases.
