About Chad DeYoung
What are some of the specific conditions you treat?
Some of the specific conditions I treat include breast cancer, lung cancer, brain cancers, cancers of the head and neck, and cancers of the digestive system.
What techniques or procedures do you use in your practice?
Some of the techniques and procedures that I use in my practice include IMRT, IGRT, SGRT, SBRT, SABR, SRS, Gamma Knife, Hypofractionated treatments, Total Neoadjuvant Therapy, and Optune Tumor Treating Fields.
What would you like patients to know about your approach to care?
I believe that each patient's care has to be individualized. Even patients with the exact same diagnosis will have unique needs including dietary requirements, social and environmental needs, challenges at home, challenges with transportation and different reactions to the same treatment. It's so important to treat the patient as a person and not a diagnosis and I'm fortunate that Valley Hospital provides the tools I need to address all of my patients' needs.
