Chelby Jessica Wakefield, MD

My care philosophy is rooted in compassion, clarity, and the belief that science and empathy must go hand in hand. As an oncologist specializing in stem cell transplantation and leukemias, I see my role not only as a physician but as a guide and anchor for patients and their families during one of the most challenging and uncertain times in their lives. I am deeply motivated by the science that drives progress in cancer care, but even more by the people it serves. In every appointment, my goals are simple but essential: that my patients understand their diagnosis, that they know the next step in their journey, and that they feel confident in their treatment plan. Above all, I want every person who sits across from me to feel supported, informed, and never alone in facing what comes next.
