Lymphomas
Expert diagnosis and treatment for Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphomas using the latest immunotherapy and targeted approaches.
Overview
Lymphomas are cancers of the lymphatic system and represent one of the most treatable forms of cancer. Our hematology-oncology team specializes in both Hodgkin lymphoma and the many subtypes of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, using molecular classification to guide treatment selection.
Advances in immunotherapy, CAR-T cell coordination, and targeted agents have dramatically improved outcomes, and our practice offers access to the latest therapies through clinical trials and standard-of-care treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma?
Hodgkin lymphoma is characterized by the presence of Reed-Sternberg cells and typically follows a predictable pattern of spread. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is more diverse with over 60 subtypes, each with different behavior and treatment approaches.
Is lymphoma curable?
Many lymphomas are curable, especially Hodgkin lymphoma and certain aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Even indolent (slow-growing) lymphomas that may not be curable can often be managed effectively for many years.
