In November 2019, Dr. Bamidele A. Adesunloye joined City of Hope in Atlanta, Georgia. As a medical oncologist, Dr. Adesunloye evaluates and treats patients with various types and stages of cancer. He works with a multidisciplinary team of doctors, clinicians and nurses committed to helping patients aggressively fight cancer and manage their quality of life.
At City of Hope, Dr. Adesunloye works with each patient to develop an integrative and personalized treatment plan. He wants his patients and their families to take an active role in the treatment decision-making process. Dr. Adesunloye achieves this by taking as much time as needed to provide education and answer questions, so patients understand their cancer and treatment options.
“I am focused on delivering patient-centered care, which is the heart of City of Hope,” Dr. Adesunloye says. “I truly get to know my patients by working with them throughout their cancer journey. I am with them every step of the way, from coordinating diagnosis, implementing the treatment plan, monitoring progress and celebrating survivorship.”
Dr. Adesunloye earned his medical degree from the University of Ilorin in Ilorin, Nigeria. He completed an internal medicine residency at Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta, Georgia, where he also received a Master of Science degree in clinical research. He went on to complete a fellowship in hematology and medical oncology at the National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland.
Board-certified in medical oncology and hematology, Dr. Adesunloye has practiced in a variety of health care settings since 2012. He has previously held academic appointments as an assistant professor of medicine at both Indiana University School of Medicine and Morehouse School of Medicine. Dr. Adesunloye is an active member of several professional organizations and committees.
Outside of City of Hope, Dr. Adesunloye enjoys spending time with friends and family. He also likes traveling, photography and badminton.
