Dr. Craig Hullett joined City of Hope Phoenix in March 2023 as a Radiation Oncologist, working with a multidisciplinary team to evaluate and treat patients diagnosed with a variety of types and stages of cancer. Some of the specific techniques he uses to treat his patients includes brachytherapy, accelerated partial breast irradiation and intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). Dr. Hullett is well published in a wide variety of areas, such as online patient information, radiotherapeutic management of vestibular schwannomas and management of leptomeningeal metastases.

Prior to deciding to attend medical school, Dr. Hullett earned his Master of Arts degree from Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and his Doctorate of Philosophy from Michigan State University in East Lansing, Michigan. He later became a tenured communications professor at the University of Arizona. Inspired by his mother’s work as an oncology nurse, Dr. Hullett fell in love with medicine while volunteering at an inpatient hospice facility. While he was initially interested in a number of specialities, radiation oncology remained a consistent calling, and he decided it was the perfect combination of the technical and scientific facets he loved about medicine. He especially appreciated that the specialty allowed him to develop lasting relationships with his patients.

“It’s important to me to treat each patient as an individual; knowing that, just as every cancer is different, every patient is different,” he says. “I always try to keep in mind that, while I see patients and treat cancer all day long, for the patient, it’s a new, unfamiliar experience.”

After earning his medical degree from University of Arizona College of Medicine in Tucson, AZ, Dr. Hullett completed a medical/surgical internship and radiation oncology residency at the University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics in Madison, Wisconsin. He is board certified in radiation oncology by the American Board of Radiology and is a member of both the Gold Humanism and Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Societies.

Outside of City of Hope, he enjoys spending time and traveling with his family, including his wife, a nurse practitioner in cardiology, and two sons.
