About me

Dr. Sokolova specializes in caring for men with prostate cancer. She chose oncology because she values the special connection she has with her patients.

She approaches each patient as a whole, addressing all aspects of their health and provide access to the best treatment that makes sense for them. Her special interests are in prostate cancer genetics. She has completed Intensive Course in Cancer Genetic Risk Assessment at City of Hope and has spent time at Memorial Sloan Kettering Genetics clinic.

Insurance

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. Check your network. If you have health insurance,  call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
  2. Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.

If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network.
