Cristen Fiore Staiano

I am a board-certified nurse practitioner with many years of experience in caring for people with cancer. I currently specialize in caring for people who are receiving radiation or hormone therapy for prostate cancer, as well as those with prostate cancer survivorship issues. I work as part of a collaborative team of radiation oncologists, nurses, and other interdisciplinary medical professionals to provide holistic, comprehensive, and individualized care to people at every point in their cancer journey. This includes initial diagnosis, throughout radiation treatments, and into follow-up. In the Survivorship Program, I focus on the management of long-term effects of cancer treatment and cancer surveillance and am dedicated to improving the quality of life of my patients.
 
I joined Memorial Sloan Kettering in 2011. Throughout my time at MSK, I have gained extensive knowledge about the complexities of cancer treatment and what it is like to care for patients and families going through such a life-altering experience. I have a passion for helping to manage intricate issues related to cancer therapy, all while maintaining quality of life for my patients. I look forward to furthering my practice by being involved in research studies that help create and implement evidence-based practice standards.
