Samantha Fortune

I am a clinical social worker who provides supportive care to people with cancer and their loved ones. I work with patients and their families at MSK Nassau in Uniondale, where residents of Long Island and eastern Queens have easier access to our outstanding cancer care services, closer to home.

I am passionate about working with my patients to ensure that they feel validated throughout their cancer journey. My goal is to help them cope as they adjust to cancer both emotionally and physically.

I graduated from the Silberman School of Social Work at Hunter College and have been with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) since 2023. Before MSK, I worked with non-profit organizations, where I supported and counseled people with cancer, caregivers, and those who lost loved ones. I also developed programs and initiatives for people with breast and gynecologic cancers.

Outside of work, I enjoy reading, trying new foods, and traveling.
