Meet our director
Dr. Cameron is a world-renowned pleural mesothelioma specialist with over two decades of expertise. As the pioneer of pleurectomy and decortication (P/D), a lung-sparing surgery with a 90% success rate in symptom relief, Dr. Cameron has redefined mesothelioma treatment. Patients from across the country travel to Los Angeles, seeking advanced care and a personalized approach to managing this complex disease.
Rather than focusing on a cure, Dr. Cameron emphasizes controlling mesothelioma, a philosophy developed through years of experience. This multimodal approach has allowed patients to live longer than expected, with a quality of life that was once unimaginable.
Robert B. Cameron, MD
"You can’t get stuck on the idea of having to cure it. We can be good at controlling it. You can live forever with a small tumor—if you can find a way to control it."
– Dr. Cameron
