Specializing in adult cancer and hematology, Lisa Duhaime, MD, recently joined the Hamilton Cancer Institute medical staff.

“I believe in treating every patient as though they were my mother or father or sister or brother,” says Duhaime. “I believe in doing my best to explain to every patient all of their treatment options and helping them to choose the option that is best for their life.”

Duhaime is a board certified medical oncologist. She received her medical degree from the University of Toledo College of Medicine in Toledo, Ohio. She completed her residency at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Mich., and a fellowship at H. Lee Moffit Cancer Center at the University of South Florida in Tampa.

“I chose to become a doctor because I felt that it was what God had for me to do with my life, and every day that I get to come to work and take care of patients is a blessing,” Duhaime says. “Every patient that I meet has something to teach me and to help me grow to be a better person and doctor.”

In her free time, Duhaime says she enjoys spending time with her husband and four teenage children on their family farm.
