Aaron O. Williams, Pharm.D., MD
“I chose to pursue a career in medicine, specifically radiation oncology, because I wanted to be on the front line in the battle against cancer. When I made this decision, I also made a commitment to learn from some of the most respected leaders in this field. I earned my medical degree from the University of South Florida College of Medicine and completed residency training at the Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute, which is a partner of Detroit Medical Center (DMC) and one of the leading cancer programs in the United States. I’m grateful for the knowledge I’ve received and the skills I’ve developed, because they allow me to help improve the health and quality of life of patients of all ages.
“When a patient learns that they have cancer, their whole world changes. Not only do they become worried, so do their friends and family members. To help alleviate my patients’ fears, I provide them with the utmost personalized care and compassion. I will explain their condition and any recommended treatment in simple, easy-to-understand language. Finally, I will spend the time to answer their questions and address their concerns. My patients find this extra attention can make the whole process a positive one for them and their loved ones.”
