About me
Dr. Julian Hong is a radiation oncologist who specializes in caring for patients with cancers of the genital and urinary organs, including prostate, bladder and kidney cancers. He has particular expertise in advanced techniques that boost precision, including intensity-modulated radiation therapy, image-guided radiation therapy and stereotactic body radiation therapy.
Hong's research centers on developing and exploring the use of computational tools for providing patients with personalized precision treatment. His laboratory uses clinical knowledge and data science techniques to generate insights from real-world data, develop machine learning tools, and study the ways these insights and tools can lead to better patient outcomes. He led one of the first randomized studies demonstrating that machine learning can direct patient care strategies to improve outcomes.
Hong earned his medical degree from the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health. He completed a residency in radiation oncology at Duke University Medical Center. He has a master's degree in bioengineering from Stanford University.
Hong serves on NRG Oncology's research committee on cancer care delivery. He is also a member of the American Society for Radiation Oncology's science education and program development subcommittee and the American Medical Informatics Association's summit scientific program committee.

Dr. Julian Hong is the best doctor I have ever seen. During my first visit, he treats me like his personal friend. He was able to give me careful and professional explanations on all my questions and worries. Some of the questions originated from my weeks of reading recent literature about the disease and my previous doctors could not give me satisfactory answers. Dr. Hong not only clearly explained to me about the pros and cons of all the potential treatments under study, but he also gave me a full explanation of these approaches at molecular level, and projected progress in the next 5-10 years. After visiting him, all my worries of the disease were gone. I felt that I am in the hands of the best doctors and best hospital in the world. Dr. Hong even gave me his cell phone number, telling me that if the hospital phone line is busy, I can call his cell phone number directly. I was deeply moved.

Dr. Julian Hong was wonderful. He is simply the best physician I have ever had contact with and I have been seen by many doctors. I recommend him without question to anyone experiencing the need for radiation. I trust him completely. Not only knowledgable but he is friendly and takes an interest in me as would a friend.
