Minnesota Oncology is pleased to introduce our newest Minneapolis Clinic physician, Sushma Tatineni, MD

“ A diagnosis of cancer is challenging emotionally and physically. My ultimate goal as a hematologist and oncologist is to help my patients in navigating through the difficult times, while providing them with evidence based, cutting-edge treatments and knowledge about the disease. I feel privileged in caring for my patients and in giving them support and comfort during their stressful times. Each patient is unique and it is important to me to understand the needs and concerns of my patients and their families. I strive to focus on delivering the best possible care for my patients, treating not only the condition with all resources available but considering the needs and desires of my patient in their fight against cancer.”

Dr. Tatineni joins Minnesota Oncology after completing her fellowship in Hematology and Oncology, at Karmanos Cancer Institute/Wayne State University, NCI Designated Comprehensive Cancer Center in Detroit, MI.

Her areas of special interest include:

  • Gastrointestinal Malignancy
  • Genitourinary Malignancy
  • Lung Malignancy
  • Breast Malignancy
  • Benign Hematology
  • Myeloproliferative Neoplasms
