Resident physician improving LGBTQ+ cancer care
For Benjamin Schrank, M.D., Ph.D., personalized medicine is about more than tailoring treatment. As a resident physician in Radiation Oncology, he is passionate about creating an environment that’s inclusive, caring and safe for everyone.
I chose MD Anderson for my elective clinical rotation because I wanted to learn from the best medical providers in the field of oncology. The doctors and PAs have great attitudes and are always willing to teach.
