Jan Dombrowski

Jan Dombrowski, M.D. serves as Associate Professor of Clinical Radiation Oncology at the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry. He is a core faculty member of the University of Rochester Medical Faculty Group (URMFG) and practices within Accountable Health Partners (AHP), providing specialized cancer care across three major facilities: Pluta Cancer Center in Henrietta, Wilmot Cancer Center at Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, and Wilmot Cancer Institute in Webster.

His academic foundation includes an M.D. from Jefferson Medical College (1989), followed by an Internal Medicine internship at Bryn Mawr Hospital (1989-1990) and Radiation Oncology residency at University of Rochester Medical Center (1990-1993). Board certified by the American Board of Radiology, he maintains active clinical practice with new patient acceptance.

Dr. Dombrowski's research bridges viral oncogenesis, immunosuppression mechanisms, and thermal-chemotherapy synergies. His work spans fundamental virology (rabbit fibroma virus studies) to clinical applications (DCIS prevention strategies), with recent focus on optimizing breast cancer prevention protocols through specialized clinics. His scholarly output demonstrates consistent exploration of immune-viral-cancer interactions since the 1980s.

Analysis of his publication timeline reveals evolving expertise: early foundational work on viral immunosuppression (1984-1988), transition to therapeutic combinations (hyperthermia/chemotherapy), and contemporary clinical implementation studies. The 2025 DCIS publication exemplifies his current patient-centered approach to preventive oncology.

At the Wilmot Cancer Institute, Dr. Dombrowski leads multidisciplinary teams delivering personalized radiation oncology services. His practice integrates cutting-edge research with compassionate care across Rochester's integrated cancer network, emphasizing patient education and shared decision-making as evidenced by exceptional patient satisfaction metrics.
