Highlights
Dr. Einsley Janowski video profile
My name is Einsley Janowski. I'm a radiation oncologist at University of Virginia. I've always wanted to help people, and I feel like radiation oncology is perfect in that it allows me to have direct patient care research so that maybe I can create a better pathway for these patients to travel. My care philosophy when I'm meeting new patients is first to get an understanding of what brought them to the hospital, what brought them into my clinic that day, to reassure them about the process and give them an understanding of the process going forward for the treatment of their cancer, the goals of care of the treatment, if we're pursuing a curative approach versus a palliative approach, and just a lot of reassurance. Radiation sounds scary, but it's really not that scary. And walk them through that process. One of the most important things I think that make working at UVA such a pleasure is that we're an academic environment where everybody is basically an expert in their field. And when we go to our various tumor boards, which we attend, the focus is on the patient, and the best care for the patient. With all these different specialists for surgical oncology, medical oncology and radiation oncology, going through the evidence based decisions on how we're best treating these patients. I am very passionate about taking care of patients, about trying to come up with new ways and better ways to treat these patients, targeted agents or targeted radiation therapy. And really just to help people.
