Mehmet F. Hepgur, M.D., serves as the medical director of Broward Health North’s cancer center and chairs the hospital’s cancer committee. In addition to providing individualized treatments for patients, he oversees 11 clinical trials and recently launched a three-year hematology/oncology fellowship program to train the next generation of physicians.
“With the shortage of doctors in this subspecialty, there’s a critical need for training,” Dr. Hepgur said. “With Broward Health’s high patient volume and the advanced treatment options we offer, our fellows will get robust training and a wide range of experiences.”
Board certified in medical oncology, hematology and internal medicine, Dr. Hepgur received his medical degree from Istanbul University School of Medicine. He completed a residency in internal medicine and family medicine at SUNY at Buffalo in Buffalo, NY before completing his fellowship in hematology and oncology at USC Keck School of Medicine in Los Angeles, CA.
