Women from Kissimmee, Florida, who are considering an omentectomy (which involves the surgical removal of some or all of the abdominal lining) as a part of their ovarian cancer treatment can turn to Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa. As one of the largest cancer centers in the nation based on patient volume, Moffitt has helped countless patients get the treatment and additional support they need. We take a comprehensive, multispecialty approach to cancer treatment, which gives our patients the benefit of many professional opinions without the need for referrals.

At Moffitt, a tumor board of cancer specialists reviews each ovarian cancer patient’s case on a weekly basis. These experts work collaboratively to monitor the extent of the patient’s cancer as well as the tumor’s size and location, and make changes to the treatment plan as needed. This talented team includes surgeons, radiologists, oncologists, reproductive endocrinologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists, nurses and other supportive care providers. Through this unique approach, Moffitt ensures that each patient’s treatment plan is tailored to her specific needs, which contributes to an improved quality of life both during and after treatment. 

In addition to our highly individualized treatment and care, many women from Kissimmee choose to have their omentectomy surgeries performed at Moffitt due to our extensive experience and surgical specialties. Our patients find that: 

  • As a high-volume cancer center, Moffitt has surgeons who perform more surgeries to treat ovarian cancer and other reproductive system malignancies than most other providers.
  • Our surgeons can perform a number of different omentectomy techniques, including minimally invasive approaches and procedures that incorporate state-of-the-art technologies like robotic assistance.
  • All of our surgeons are fellowship-trained, highly experienced and exclusively perform surgeries to treat the conditions they specialize in.

Moffitt makes ovarian cancer treatment a little easier for out-of-town patients by providing assistance with travel logistics. We have partnered with several local hotels that offer discounted rates to our patients and meet or exceed our stringent hygiene and infection control standards. This allows our patients to have safe, comfortable and convenient accommodations while undergoing treatment and recovery at our cancer center.
