About Austin Poole, MD

Dr. Austin Poole is a board-certified medical oncologist and hematologist. He sees patients with all hematologic and oncologic diagnosis, but has special interest in breast cancer, lung cancer, and genitourinary cancers such as bladder, kidney, prostate and testicular cancers. Further emphasis revolves around blood cancers; leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. He attempts to individualize each cancer treatment for the specific circumstances of the patient, integrating their goals and aspirations. He works in a multidisciplinary fashion to optimize cancer care throughout each phase of care, getting multiple inputs and providing the most relevant, informed, and up-to-date therapies.
