Biography

Dr. Harvey Quon is a Radiation Oncologist and Clinical Associate Professor at the Tom Baker Cancer Centre and University of Calgary.  His clinical practice focuses on the treatment of genitourinary (prostate, bladder, testicular) and head and neck cancers.  His research goal is to improve the outcomes of patients with cancer through health services research and clinical trials.  His recent work focuses on using real-world data to improve the treatment and active surveillance of patients with low-risk prostate cancer.  Dr. Quon has received peer-reviewed grants and is the co-principal investigator (PI) of a multi-centre randomized trial optimizing stereotactic body radiotherapy for prostate cancer and is PI of a prospective trial reducing radiotherapy treatment dose and volumes to improve quality of life in patients with favourable oropharyngeal cancers.
