Ciara Freeman, MD, PhD
Specialty: Medical Oncology
Program: Blood and Marrow Transplant and Cellular Immunotherapy
Language(s): English

Overview
Dr. Freeman obtained her MD from the National University of Ireland, specialized in hematology at St Bartholomew’s in London, and obtained a master’s degree in Clinical Drug Development from Queen Mary University of London (QMUL). She also earned her PhD in immuno-oncology and therapeutics from the Barts Cancer Institute of QMUL under Professor John Gribben. She completed a fellowship in lymphoproliferative disorders and joins us from the British Columbia Cancer Agency in Vancouver, Canada, where she served as Assistant Professor and the Myeloma Lead. Dr. Freeman's clinical interests are focused on the treatment of patients with plasma cell neoplasms using autologous transplant and cellular immunotherapy. Her research interests are centered on optimizing outcomes for patients using this novel approach, identifying predictors of treatment failure or toxicity, new target discovery and clinical trial development, and identifying the best modalities for measuring disease burden and relapse. She is also interested in how to safely administer these highly effective and personalised cell therapies to all patients, including those with additional health concerns.

Patient Comments
62 patients rated this provider
The Provider Rating is an average of all responses to specific care provider-related questions from our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score.
Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question.

Comments are gathered from specific care provider-related questions from our Patient Satisfaction Survey . The comments are submitted by patients and reflect their views and opinions. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.
