Radiation Oncology

Dr. Cirrone has made it his lifelong ambition to learn as much about the cancer process, the treatment of cancer, and the cancer patient. He gravitated to the Radiation Oncology field for the challenge of mastering a single modality for the benefits of treating patients and for its multidisciplinary approach towards cancer treatment. During his Radiation Oncology training he learned how to treat all types of cancer and has treated many difficult cases. One of his interests in Radiation Oncology is the treatment of patients with organ preservation protocol. Radiation Oncology has been used in many areas to eradicate cancer while preserving function of the treatment site. Such sites include head and neck cancers, breast cancer, and anal cancer. It has been our goal at North Shore Radiation Oncology (NSRO) to deliver the most precise, up to date treatments using the latest technologies for the benefit of our patients. Dr. Cirrone understands his patients are in a difficult time in their lives and he strives to treat each patient with compassion and the respect they deserve.

Dr. Cirrone graduated Albany Medical College and took a residency in Internal Medicine at North Shore University Hospital (NSUH) because the hospital was affiliated with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC). During his training at NSUH he spent much of his time at MSKCC where first learned to take care of cancer patients. After NSUH he trained in the Radiation Oncology program at Downstate University Hospital (DUH) in Brooklyn. The program was very busy and the training in Radiation Oncology was excellent. After completing his residency in DUH he became an Attending at Long Island College Hospital in Brooklyn.

In 2000, Dr. Cirrone transferred to NYCBS and moved his family with him to Suffolk County.

  • "When I found out I had prostate cancer I actually interviewed Three doctors to see who I wanted to handle it for me out of the three that I picked. I chose Dr Cerrone. That was five years ago. When I first went to him, my PSA was at 6.7. At my last visit a week ago my PSA is down to 0.02. I think Dr Cerrone is amazing. He performed the Cyberknife treatment on me for five days and it was 100% pain-free. The fact that I have gone for five years and my PSA stays at much less than one percent is wonderful and I would highly, highly recommend Dr. Cirrone to anyone. I have spoken to several people over the years and constantly sing his praises. If you even think you have prostate cancer, this is the only man to see. He is very honest and straightforward and you will be very happy That you chose him as your doctor."
