Dennis S. Chi has been an attending surgeon at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center for more than 25 years. He has devoted his career to caring for women with cancerous and noncancerous gynecologic diseases, including cervical cancer, uterine cancer, and ovarian/fallopian tube cancer.
Chi has served as Deputy Chief of the Gynecology Service since 2010 and Head of the Ovarian Cancer Surgery Section since 2014. In 2021, she partnered with colleagues in the Departments of Medicine and Nursing as well as the Clinical Genetics Service to start the Comprehensive Assessment and Treatment of Cancers with Hereditary predisposition (CATCH) program. As the Surgical Director of this program, it is his goal to ensure that patients and family members who are at an increased risk for developing inherited cancers can be enrolled in a cutting-edge program, staffed by expert medical professionals, who can help them navigate the maze of consultations, screening tests, and preventive measures that are needed once this type of diagnosis is made.
