Michael X Lee, MD - Banner MD Anderson Cancer Center at Banner Gateway Medical Center

I strive to deliver the best care possible in a multidisciplinary approach that promotes shared decision-making, empowerment, and compassion with the patient, family, and members of cancer care team.

I want each patient I interact with to feel respected and well cared for. I want to help them understand their diagnosis and treatment options in a way that makes sense to them. I strive to treat patients how I would treat my own loved ones.

I dont just focus on the disease that I am treating, but I look at the patient as a whole when evaluating and making treatment recommendations. I take into consideration their age, performance status, co-morbidities, and I respect their autonomy, wishes and consent. I make recommendations that I think is the best for each patient, and there would be no difference in how I would treat my own family members.
