 My name is Dr. Mark Borowski, and I am the medical director for gynecologic oncology for the southern region of the Hackensack meridian system. I have been practicing as a gynecologic oncologist since 2004. My expertise is in the care of women with ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, cervical cancer, and other gynecologic malignancies. My personal care philosophy is to try and individualize care for patients. I believe that patients are more than just their diagnoses. They have different backgrounds and lifestyles, and certain treatments will work better for certain patients. I want them to feel that I'm listening to them, that I'm hearing that they have concerns, and that they have their questions addressed. I know that patients place a great amount of trust and also hope in me and the skills that I have to bring to their disease. They come to us with a diagnosis, but they don't really know what their treatment plan is, so they want a treatment plan and they want to understand it. I like to make sure that I'm spending time addressing all of their questions, making sure that their needs are met, that their family needs are met, and that if we're going to come up with a treatment plan, it's going to be the treatment plan that's been shown to be the most effective and which also works with them and their lifestyle.
