With a convenient, brand-new Arlington location that opened in June, Virginia Cancer Specialists provides patients with excellent cancer care close to home. Their team of world-class medical professionals affords the absolute best in comprehensive treatment. They embrace all aspects of confronting cancer, including prevention, detection, diagnosis, treatment and research.

Dr. Isabelle Le is board certified in medical oncology and hematology, and she focuses on managing and treating breast cancer. At Virginia Cancer Specialists, she works with a multidisciplinary team that includes breast surgeons, radiation oncologists, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurse navigators, genetic counselors, social workers, clinical trials/research scientists, dietitians and more.

In a field that is constantly evolving, Dr. Le works hard to remain on the cutting edge by reading oncology journals and collaborating with other professionals in her field to learn the very latest. “I stay involved in clinical research to be able to offer patients a potentially superior novel treatment option that is not yet widely available.”

What are the keys to Dr. Le’s success? “I strive to be a good internist and keep up with the pace of change,” she says. “I assist patients with basic pain management and counsel them through end-of-life decisions. I practice good communication and actively listen to deliver complex information in a simple and understandable way.”

Work-life balance is important, too. Dr. Le actively practices mindfulness to remain grounded and recharge. When not working, she enjoys traveling with her family, trying new cuisines and gardening. Dr. Le is one of only a few medical oncologists in the D.C. metro area who speaks Vietnamese.

I am an internist by training (as all oncologists are), and I am board certified in hematology and medical oncology with a special focus on breast oncology. My patients can be assured that when they are under my care, I will do my best for them.
