“The most important thing we do is listen to our patients and support them along their journey,” says Dr. John H. Farley, a Gynecologic Oncologist at City of Hope Phoenix.

Dr. Farley is renowned in the field of gynecologic oncology and brings more than 30 years of expertise to the City of Hope team. A graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point, Dr. Farley earned his medical degree from Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USUHS) in Bethesda, MD. He then completed a residency in obstetrics and gynecology and a fellowship in gynecologic oncology, both at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C.

He was named Top Doctor by Phoenix magazine and has headed the gynecology department at medical centers ranked among the Best Hospitals for Gynecology by US News and World Report.

From 2014-2017, Dr. Farley served as Chief of the Division of Gynecologic Oncology for Cancer Treatment Centers of America, which is now City of Hope Phoenix. He now looks forward to carrying on his standard of excellence in gynecologic cancer care with City of Hope.

Dr. Farley maintains professorships with the University of Arizona College of Medicine in Phoenix and the Creighton University School of Medicine in Omaha, NE.

Dr. Farley has been invited to give presentations at many events, including physician seminars, Gynecologic Cancer Awareness Weekend in Washington, D.C.; American Association for Cancer Research; and American Society of Clinical Oncology in Chicago. The topics of his presentations ranged from gynecological malignancies to updates in cervical and ovarian cancer. He has also spoken at the International Meeting of the European Society of Gynecological Oncology, Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology and the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.

Dr. Farley has conducted extensive research on cervical cancer, ovarian cancer and general gynecologic cancer and has been published in numerous journals and book chapters, such as the Journal of Clinical Oncology and Prognostic and Predictive Factors in Gynecologic Cancers.

Outside of his work in oncology, Dr. Farley enjoys spending time with his wife and their two children.

Patient ratings
Star ratings and comments are only available for medical, radiation and gynecologic oncologists. Gynecologic surgical offerings are not included at this time due to a different survey tool required to evaluate these services. CTCA uses a validated Press Ganey® survey, which captures patient experience feedback for the primary oncology services of chemotherapy and radiation therapy at our comprehensive care and research centers. Following industry best practice, star ratings and comments are only published for physicians with a minimum of 30 completed patient surveys.
