Cedars-Sinai Cancer appoints regional medical director for radiation oncology
Marc Botnick, MD, has been appointed regional medical director for radiation oncology at Cedars-Sinai Cancer.
Botnick — who has more than 20 years of experience managing all cancer types — will practice primarily at Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Radiation Oncology, but he will work with physicians across the institution.
“Dr. Botnick has been one of the best and most established radiation oncologists in the San Fernando Valley for many years and he is well-regarded throughout the Los Angeles region,” Howard Sandler, MD, chair of the department of radiation oncology at Cedars-Sinai, said in a press release. “His appointment as regional medical director and faculty member in the department of radiation oncology is an exciting development for Cedars-Sinai and for patients throughout the region seeking treatment for a variety of cancers.”
Botnick, who previously served as radiation oncologist at City of Hope, looks forward to developing a collaborative network with physicians throughout the region.
“I believe that I am able — through my experience — to coordinate among facilities, to optimize their practice and to promote good communication among clinicians, so that patients feel assured that they will receive efficient, careful and mindful radiation oncology treatment throughout the Cedars-Sinai Cancer enterprise,” Botnick said in the release. "I also want to develop strong relationships with physicians in other subspecialties and help them develop their own connections with the community.”
