About me
Dr. Kent Adler is an oncologist experienced in treating a variety of cancers, with particular expertise in lung and breast cancer. He believes three pillars form the strongest foundation to fight cancer: knowledge, communication and heart.
Adler's research focuses on developing new therapies for lung cancer.
Adler earned his medical degree from UCSF. He completed a residency in internal medicine at New York – Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center and a fellowship in medical oncology at Stanford University School of Medicine. A longtime advocate of multidisciplinary clinics for managing cancer, he co-founded one of the first multidisciplinary clinics for lung cancer on the West Coast while a faculty member at Stanford.
Throughout his career, Adler has served in leadership positions, including as a board member of the Mills Peninsula Medical Group and Association of Northern California Oncologists.
In his free time, Adler enjoys traveling, skiing and hiking with his wife, also a doctor, and their two adult children. A native of the Bay Area, he also loves the San Francisco Giants and almost anything related to baseball.

Dr. Adler starts by listening intently, he addresses every item brought forward, more like having a conversation with me, discussing my care and all concerns. He answers all concerns and then provides all options; he explains everything in a way that I can understand with my level of understanding.I would just say that for me, consulting with Dr. Adler is more like talking to a friend about my care, he's an excellent Physician, and also caring, compassionate, and helpful. I'm happy to be under his care.
