Arizona Oncology announced a new Flagstaff location for its cancer care on Tuesday.
Arizona Oncology is a statewide advanced cancer care provider.
“We are one of the largest groups of medical professionals in Arizona devoted to providing compassionate cancer care and breakthrough research close to where patients live and work,” the announcement said.
The Flagstaff office is located at 77 W. Forest Ave., No. 301. Appointments can be scheduled by calling (928) 635-7307 or online at arizonaoncology.com.
Medical oncologist Peter Mathern, MD is joining the team at this new location and will begin seeing patients in Flagstaff.
Mathern treats all solid tumor cancers and lymphoma, with a specialization in bone marrow biopsies.
He started practicing medicine in Arizona in 1996 and has worked in both urgent care and hospital services, including service on the medical executive committees of the Mohave Valley Hospital and Medical Center and the Western Arizona Regional Medical Center.
“I was drawn to oncology because the research is constantly evolving in ways that allow us to make a significant impact on our patients’ lives,” Mathern said in the announcement.
He received a medical degree from Charles University Medical School, and completed an internship at the General Hospital of Bratislava County and rheumatology research fellowship at the National Institutes of Health, as well as a residency in internal medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Center and another fellowship, in oncology and hematology, at Boston University Medical Center.
