Our Story: Memorial Radiation Oncology Medical Group
Memorial Radiation Oncology Medical Group was founded with a mission to provide compassionate, cutting-edge cancer care to our community. Our story began with a shared vision among a group of dedicated oncologists Dr. A.M. Nisar Syed and Dr. Ajmel Puthawala who saw a need for a comprehensive cancer treatment center that not only focuses on advanced therapies but also prioritizes the well-being of patients and their families.

How We Came to Be
In the early 2000s, a few pioneering doctors in radiation oncology recognized that cancer care was not just about treating the disease but also about supporting the patient through every step of their journey. They wanted to create a place where innovative treatment options were combined with a deeply caring and supportive environment. This vision led to the creation of Memorial Radiation Oncology Medical Group.
Starting with just a small team, we focused on assembling a group of like-minded professionals who were passionate about providing the highest standard of care. We built strong partnerships with local hospitals and medical institutions, ensuring our patients had access to the latest technology and treatment protocols in radiation therapy.

Growing with Our Community
As word spread about our patient-centered approach, our practice began to grow. We expanded our services to include a wide range of radiation therapy options, from traditional external beam radiation to more advanced techniques like stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). Our commitment to staying at the forefront of technology meant investing in the best equipment and continuous training for our staff.
We also understood that a supportive community is crucial for healing. That’s why we established support groups, educational workshops, and community outreach programs to help patients and their families navigate the complexities of cancer treatment.

Our Philosophy
At Memorial Radiation Oncology Medical Group, we believe in treating the whole person, not just the cancer. Our team takes the time to understand each patient’s unique situation, working closely with them to create a personalized treatment plan that best meets their needs and goals. We are proud of the comprehensive care we provide and remain committed to our founding principles of compassion, excellence, and innovation.
Today, we continue to honor our legacy by expanding our services and maintaining a strong presence in the community. We are grateful for the trust our patients place in us and strive every day to provide the best possible care to help them on their journey to recovery.
