Frederick Wilson, MD, PhD
Biography
Frederick Wilson, MD, PhD, is a medical oncologist who cares for patients with lung cancer.
“I enjoy working with patients to understand their treatment goals, to answer their questions and provide guidance at a challenging time, and to help develop treatment plans based on the specific characteristics of their cancer,” he says.
As a member of the Smilow Cancer Hospital Thoracic Oncology Program, Dr. Wilson works alongside colleagues from multiple disciplines, including thoracic surgery, pathology, pulmonology, radiation oncology, and social work, to provide comprehensive care tailored to each patient’s needs.
Dr. Wilson conducts laboratory-based research with a focus on identifying and characterizing new potential targets in lung and other cancers and to understand how cancers become resistant to targeted lung cancer therapies.
