About me
I am a medical oncologist who specializes in diagnosis and treatment of adults with:
- Esophageal cancer
- Stomach cancer
- Colon cancer
- Rectal cancer
- Pancreatic cancer
- Liver cancer
- Neuroendocrine tumors
I also have experience with rare cancers such as pheochromocytoma, paraganglioma and adrenal cancer.
I specialize in chemotherapy, immunotherapy and team care for cancer with other specialists.
I take part in clinical trials and cancer research to improve patients’ survival and quality of life and to better understand these diseases.
I find it rewarding to help you understand your disease, provide a custom plan for you and support you through your treatment.
I grew up in upstate New York in a French-speaking family and go by Guillaume or Will, the English translation of my first name. Although I have spent most of my life on the East Coast, I was very excited to move to Portland, as were my wife and children.
Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, ice hockey and traveling with my family.
