Physician Advisory Council

Members of the council represent a diverse group of physicians who meet with MD Anderson physicians to discuss new clinical and research developments, and provide ongoing feedback for communication initiatives, physician access, and referral processes. In addition, these meetings serve as a platform for educational lectures by our faculty, as well as opportunities to identify new and innovative ways to work together to improve continuity and coordination of care for cancer patients and cancer survivors.

Chair: Randal Weber, M.D.
Co-Chair: Michael Frumovitz, M.D.
