Stephen Bader, MD
About Me
My first responsibility as an oncologist is to teach a patient and their family about their diagnosis of cancer, the natural history of the disease, how it is treated, and the role of radiotherapy in their disease process. I explain how my treatment team will provide them not only first rate care, but also the compassion and support that all cancer patients deserve.
Dr. Bader graduated from the University of Washington and completed his internship and residency in internal medicine at the New England Deaconess Hospital, Harvard Medical School. He later finished his fellowship and became Chief Resident for the Joint Center for Radiation Therapy at Harvard Medical School.
