About Dr. Blacksburg

Expert Radiation Oncologist Dedicated to Precision and Exceptional Care

As a history major in college, my path changed when several close family members fell ill. I realized medicine was my calling—not only to advance science and technology, but to care for people during life’s most challenging moments. That journey led me to oncology, where I’ve worked to combine cutting-edge innovation with personalized, family-centered care.
