Why does precision medicine matter to you? We’ll let the expert, Dr. Oh, explain: “We now have so many new therapies. Cancer drug development is one of the most active areas in the world, and we understand a lot more about what makes cancer progress and grow, so we’re able to do targeted, focused treatments… . Precision cancer medicine means trying to find the right treatments for the right patient at the right time. About one-third of patients are beneficiaries of this kind of understanding – the genomics of the cancer and getting a targeted treatment. … As cancer treatment becomes more complex, we must move to a space where we can help doctors deliver the best possible care.”

Thank you for supporting medical advances at Greenwich Hospital! Read full interview in our magazine at giving.greenhosp.org. More about Dr. Oh at linkedin.com/in/williamohmd.

What does legacy mean to you? For this mother and daughter, it is about giving back to their hometown of Greenwich. The late Harry Keleshian helped shape Greenwich Avenue, and his wife and daughter continue now by helping to shape the future of oncology care by supporting the new Smilow Cancer Hospital at Greenwich Hospital. We are both inspired and deeply grateful!

We recently had the honor of welcoming back a Greenwich Hospital legend: retired and beloved oncologist Dr. Dickerman Hollister Jr.

He stopped by to hear about the exciting plans for the new Smilow Cancer Hospital at Greenwich Hospital. It was an incredibly moving moment as he reflected on the decades he spent caring for patients here and saw the future of cancer care taking shape. His warm response not only affirms the importance of this expansion, but also the importance of community, belonging and compassion.

Thank you, Dr. Hollister! We are building on the strong foundation you helped create.
