Kidney Cancer

More so than with other cancers, it’s imperative that patients with kidney cancer seek treatment at a center that has lots of experience imaging, diagnosing and treating the disease. At Winship, we see more individuals with renal cancer than anywhere else in the region. In fact, we’re one of the top-performing hospitals for kidney cancer in the country. Here, every member of your care team — including your medical oncologist, radiation oncologist, surgeon and genetic counselor — is an expert in not only cancer, but kidney cancer specifically. You won’t find that level of expertise at community cancer centers.

Winship offers a wide array of treatment options for kidney cancer ranging from noninvasive monitoring of small tumors to surgery, targeted therapy and investigational drugs. Renal cancers can be slow-growing or aggressive. That’s why it’s best you seek treatment at a center with the knowledge and experience to match you with the best therapy for your disease. Our team will come together to design a treatment plan to target your specific kidney cancer with the most powerful treatments necessary — all while minimizing side effects.

Your treatment plan requires an accurate and precise diagnosis. Winship uses the most advanced imaging and diagnostic technology to understand renal cancers. Our radiologists specialize in diagnosing genitourinary cancers, so you can be assured they’re well-versed in kidney tumors.

With more clinical trials than any other cancer center in the state, you’ll have access to the most advanced and innovative treatments for your specific renal cancer. We match as many patients as possible to trials, including those with intermediate-stage disease.
