Amy M. Chan, MD, MS
Neuro-Oncologist & Neurologist
My Role at MSKWe post reviews for MSK healthcare providers who have at least 30 patient experience surveys completed. If you do not see reviews for a provider, it may be because they do not yet have enough survey responses, or the provider may not be part of the group of healthcare providers included in the survey.
Only outpatient providers are included in the survey. Healthcare providers who only work in the hospital or in urgent care are not included in the survey. Pathologists or researchers who do not provide direct care to patients do not have reviews.

About Me
- Associate Attending Neuro-Oncologist
I am a neuro-oncologist who specializes in the care of people with brain tumors and the neurologic complications of cancer and its treatments. I focus on providing specialized care and clinical trial options to patients. I see patients at the Rockefeller Outpatient Pavilion and MSK Westchester in New York, and MSK Bergen in Montvale, New Jersey. Working closely with a multidisciplinary team of neurosurgeons, radiation oncologists, nurses, and research staff, my goal is to deliver high-quality, and compassionate care in the treatment of brain tumors including:
A brain cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming, and I aim to provide expert, personalized, and compassionate care to patients. My patients and I take the journey together, from finding hope, going through treatment, to monitoring their health conditions.
I am excited to work as a neuro-oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, where advances in treatment continue to lead us to our mission of ending cancer for life. I aim for each patient to have confidence that our multidisciplinary team offers the latest and best treatment options for their needs. Beyond being a physician, I see myself as a trusted guide to help patients through physical and neurocognitive challenges. Their stories and journey are at the heart of the care I provide.
