Emma Scott, M.D.

"After climbing a great mountain, we find that there are many more mountains to climb. I am inspired by patients and families who courageously embrace both the challenges and triumphs of their blood cancer. I am passionate about developing new treatments for this incurable disease and ways to improve patients lives with Multiple Myeloma. I love my practice at OHSU due to the long- term relationships that I have with my patients and the ability to provide cutting edge clinical care throughout their lives."
