Department of Pediatrics :
MSK's Department of Pediatrics is the nation's largest pediatric cancer program dedicated to the treatment of children, teenagers, and young adults with cancer, immune deficiencies and blood disorders, with more than 800 new patients each year. Comprising leading experts in the treatment of pediatric malignancies and immune deficiencies, over 70 faculty members within the Department of Pediatrics are dedicated to seeking novel approaches to achieve more-effective outcomes while reducing or minimizing the short-and long-term effects of treatment, both in the laboratory and in state-of-the-art clinical facilities.
In addition to treatment, MSK offers a wide range of support services to enhance quality of life and ease the experience of cancer on families. Care for children, adolescents, or young adults is provided in an adjoined inpatient and outpatient platform that incorporates family-friendly and age appropriate design. The outpatient facilities include a Recreation Center, as well as a classroom for MSK's school program; a lounge designated for teen and young adult patients; suites with the latest medical technology; private areas for consultations and treatment; and treatment and family spaces with multiple integrative medicine services and recreational patient programming. Contained within the pediatric care platform is also a Pediatric Intensive Care Unit for children who require a more-intensive inpatient support, and a Procedure Room for onsite anesthesia-staffed procedures.
MSK's unparalleled volume allows for delivery of care within disease-oriented services with deep vertically-integrated sub-specialized expertise : Neuro-oncology, Sarcoma, Neuroblastoma, Hematologic Malignancies, and Stem Cell Transplantation and Cellular Therapy Services. There are three horizontally integrated programs that impact care of patients across all services : the Pediatric Translational Medicine Program (molecular diagnostics and early phase clinical trials), the Clinical Trials infrastructure and the Fellowship program. The Division of Academic Oncology seeks to horizontally integrate all medical practitioners that are required for the care and support of patients, including pediatric oncologists that care for the full breadth of cancer patients, supportive services (pain, palliative, psychosocial), survivorship, and affiliated subspecialists.
