4 minsRobert Siegel, MD, radiologist at Siteman Cancer Center, discusses how Siteman functions as an enterprise when it comes to cancer care, combining basic science with large community outposts that extend into underserved areas. He shares that is goal is to bring cutting=edge cancer care to communities that need it most. Dr. Siegel has served in both urban and rural environments and notes that the challenges of providing care are often very similar.
