Gynecologic oncologist S. Diane Yamada, MD, is part of a team of experts providing comprehensive care for both common and rare ovarian cancers.

If you have ovarian cancer, you know the diagnosis can be physically and emotionally challenging. But you don’t have to battle this cancer alone — our experts are here to help. The gynecologic oncologists at UChicago Medicine are highly experienced in diagnosing and treating ovarian cancer, including cancer of the fallopian tube and primary peritoneal cancer.

We care for patients who:

  • Have an ovarian mass that needs to be evaluated for risk of malignancy
  • Have a new or suspected diagnosis of invasive or recurrent ovarian cancer
  • Have a new diagnosis of primary or recurrent borderline tumor of the ovary, also known as low malignant potential (LMP) ovarian tumors
  • Want a second opinion on the best possible treatment
  • Are interested in participating in a clinical trial or study
  • Have a BRCA mutation or other inherited mutation that increases risk of cancer and wish to discuss approaches to reduce the risk of developing cancer, including prophylactic surgery
