Leaders in Mesothelioma Treatment

The late Dr. David Sugarbaker, a pioneer in advancing the treatment of pleural mesothelioma, founded the Mesothelioma Treatment Center and recruited Dr. R. Taylor Ripley, who now serves as the Director.

Mesothelioma is an uncommon cancer; therefore, many oncologists are unlikely to have significant experience in treating it. Here, our team specializes in mesothelioma treatment and has helped hundreds of patients.

In collaboration with Baylor College of Medicine, our oncologists, radiologists, and staff use leading-edge medical techniques, including genetic and genomic approaches, combined with essential support and therapy to treat the whole person. To overcome the challenges of treating mesothelioma, we are actively committed to conducting clinical trials with new treatments, pharmaceuticals, and procedures.
