Karin Cole, M.D. Surgical Oncologist, Joins Mercy’s Portland Surgical Associates

Portland, Maine (October 11, 2011) – Dr. Karin Cole, a board certified General Surgeon with fellowship training in Surgical Oncology, recently joined Portland Surgical Associates, part of Mercy Health System and its growing community of health care providers.

“The demand for well-trained and experienced surgical oncologists is high.  We are honored to have Dr. Cole return to Maine and join our team as part of Portland Surgical Associates. She is a talented surgeon and compassionate provider who is sure to give our patients the clinical excellence they expect from Mercy and our cancer care practices,” said Eileen Skinner, President and CEO of Mercy Health System of Maine.

Dr. Cole, originally from Rockport, Maine, attended college at Tulane University in New Orleans and medical school at Tufts University in Boston. She completed residency in general surgery at Abington Memorial Hospital in Abington, PA, serving as administrative chief resident during her fifth year.  Most recently, Dr. Cole finished a two-year clinical fellowship in surgical oncology at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, where she worked with leaders in surgery of the pancreas and the liver, as well as regional chemotherapy and minimally invasive cancer surgery.

“When you take care of cancer patients,” says Dr. Cole, “you take a journey with each of them.  Going through the ups and downs is very challenging but it’s also what makes my job so rewarding.”

Dr. Cole says she is happy to be part of an organization devoted to the community it serves.

“At Mercy, there really is a personalized approach to each patient, from the nurses to the operating room staff, everyone is so caring. The people here take the mission of Mercy seriously.  It’s not just an empty sentiment.”

Dr. Cole has published clinical papers in the areas of breast cancer, cystic lesions of the pancreas, surgical education, diverticulitis, and trauma surgery. Her particular areas of expertise include tumors of the pancreas, metastatic tumors of the liver, peritoneal carcinomatosis, tumors of the endocrine organs, and surgical care of the geriatric patient.

Portland Surgical Associates, which includes some of the area’s most accomplished surgeons, is located at Mercy’s Fore River campus.
