About MSK Alumni
MSK alumni are vital ambassadors for MSK—and living examples of the far-reaching impact of MSK’s work and dedication to training world-class physicians.
Founded in 1975, the MSK Alumni Society brings together an exceptional group of approximately 4,000 oncologists, surgeons, radiation therapists, chemotherapists, and pathologists who represent Memorial Sloan Kettering in 49 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and 48 countries.
The MSK Alumni Society shares MSK’s commitment to the progressive control and cure of cancer by fostering continued communication and consultation with alumni. To further this mission, the MSK Alumni Society provides complete access to a directory of MSK-trained physicians, which includes their areas of professional expertise and current locations.
