Surgeon Dr. Wade Dosch Joins Specialty Breast Surgery Practice
SIOUX FALLS (Jan. 24, 2012) – Avera Medical Group is pleased to announce that Wade Dosch, MD, will become a partner in Avera Medical Group Comprehensive Breast Care as of Jan. 30, 2012. Dr. Dosch joins breast surgeon Dr. Julie Reiland in this practice.
Dr. Dosch is currently a surgeon with Avera Medical Group McGreevy 7th Avenue, and will continue to practice general surgery at the 7th Avenue clinic. He will move his breast cancer practice to Avera Medical Group Comprehensive Breast Care.
Dr. Dosch is making this change due to his special interest in providing diagnosis, surgery and long-term follow-up care for breast cancer and other breast disease. He is a member of the Avera Breast Center’s Breast Health Professional Advisory Board, and serves as Avera’s cancer liaison physician to the American College of Surgeons’ Commission on Cancer. He also serves liaison physician to the CoC for the state of South Dakota. Dr. Dosch holds a medical degree from the University of South Dakota School of Medicine at Vermillion. He completed residency at Michigan State University at Lansing, and a surgical fellowship at Naval Hospital, Twenty-Nine Palms. He is certified by the American Board of Surgery.
Dr. Dosch offers the latest surgical techniques and is also a sub-investigator in Avera’s groundbreaking research using IntraOperative Electron Radiation Therapy (IOeRT) in the treatment of early stage breast cancer.
“Dr. Reiland and I share a commitment to work with Avera’s multidisciplinary breast team to arrive at the very best possible plan of care for each woman who experiences breast cancer,” Dr. Dosch said.
“Avera’s comprehensive approach to the treatment of breast cancer through the Avera Breast Center has raised the bar in breast cancer care,” said Dr. Dosch. “Everyone on our team has a special interest in breast cancer care, and a personal mission to provide a higher standard of care. We have a dedicated and vested interest to ensure that each patient gets the best and highest quality of care, at the same level as any cancer center in the country. This is our ultimate goal through the Avera Breast Center, and Avera Medical Group Comprehensive Breast Care.”
