Subrato Deb, MD, MPH

Subrato J. Deb, MD, MPH, was recruited from the University of Oklahoma School of Medicine and the OU Stephenson Cancer Center where he was professor of surgery and Chief of thoracic surgical oncology. Under his leadership, the OU Cancer Center received the prestigious National Cancer Institute designation.

About Me

My approach to patient care is engaging and personal. I hold myself to high standards and apply evidence based data to the surgical care I provide. I most enjoy building lasting relationships with my patients and their families. My philosophy is to never give up on anyone whom I am fortunate enough to treat as their surgeon.

In my spare time, I enjoy outdoor activity and taking my RV on the road.
