“In my 35-year career, I’ve have treated over 20,000 patients. Throughout this time, I’ve enjoyed the challenge and opportunity to blend human compassion with the tangible realities of new scientific discoveries. I believe that medicine is a personal calling; a calling in which, as stated by Dr. William Osler (the famous teacher and first professor of medicine at Johns Hopkins) ‘One uses the heart as much as the head.’ I’ve kept these words with me as a mantra and have made it my personal goal to always practice with compassion and humanism. With hope, with inspiration, and with determination, it is my goal to guide you through your cancer journey for the best outcome possible.”

  • "Dr Nissenblatt had been my medical oncologist for several years. He is very attentive, listens and remembers your concerns and addresses them completely. He follow-ups up in my HGSC every three months and check in if needed. ASTERA itself is also fabulous. From my labs, infusion, triage, scheduling, nursing, palliative and emotional well being, ASTERA has it all under its umbrella. Shout out to Tina, Rachel, Nashama, and the entire front desk and lab staff. Thank you all for outstanding care and support."
