Kristen Rice, MD

MEDICAL GROUP:

Medical Oncology Associates of San Diego

PRACTICE SPECIALITY:

Hematology, Medical Oncology

“I believe that truly great cancer is care is about much more than just choosing the right chemotherapy regimen. I want to understand my patients’ goals and wishes so that together we can develop a treatment plan that aligns with those goals. Providing relief from the pain, symptoms, and stress caused by the cancer is just as important as treating the cancer itself.“

Dr. Rice's particular interests are melanoma and other advanced skin cancers, cancers of the upper gastrointestinal tract including the liver and pancreas.
