About Douglas Reznick, MD
Dr. Reznick is a board-certified medical oncologist who joined Rocky Mountain Cancer Centers in 2004 and has been caring for patients through their cancer diagnosis for over two decades. He specializes in thoracic (lung) cancer, head and neck cancers, and skin cancers, as well as primary brain tumors and benign (non-cancerous) blood disorders.
Providing comprehensive cancer care to his patients is a top priority. He strongly believes in educating and collaborating with his patients regarding their diagnosis, prognosis, and cancer treatment options so a collaborative plan of care is tailored to each patient. Testing his patients’ tumors for specific cancer markers is an integral part of their work up, which helps to determine the best treatment options available for them based on their cancer type – including the most up-to-date cancer therapies.
Dr. Reznick participates in several tumor boards, where he collaborates with other cancer specialists including surgeons, radiologists, pathologists, and radiation oncologists to provide a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary approach to their diagnostic work up and management, which further enhances their overall care and outcome. Dr. Reznick emphasizes the importance of participating in clinical research trials whenever possible to ensure his patients are receiving the most advanced, cutting edge treatment for their diagnosis.

Patient Care Philosophy
When caring for individuals with cancer and blood disorders, the main focus tends to be on the treatment. However, it is equally important to address their emotional and spiritual needs. Giving patients, as well as their family members and friends, the time and education required to help navigate them through the experience is just as important. Paying close attention to one’s overall needs and well-being is my main priority when treating all patients.
