A Team of Specialists Dedicated to Your Cancer Care

At the USC Sarcoma Program, we treat sarcomas of all kinds, including complex sarcomas of the bone (osteosarcoma) and soft tissue. Our orthopedic cancer doctors treat osteosarcoma, Ewing’s sarcoma, metastatic disease of bone, metabolic bone disease and bone disorders associated with cancer treatment.

Your care is managed by an experienced team of specialists who will design a treatment plan just for you. Whether you need care for rare and complex tumors or less-invasive treatment options, we will be by your side from diagnosis through recovery.
