Continuing to provide comprehensive, specialized health care to the local community, Houston Methodist Clear Lake Hospital this month welcomed breast surgical oncologist Michelino Scarlata, M.D. The addition of Scarlata means that breast cancer patients in Clear Lake and surrounding areas can receive specialized surgical techniques tailored to their individual needs without traveling far from home.
Scarlata is a board-certified surgeon who is fellowship-trained in surgical oncology. He earned his medical degree from the University of Verona School of Medicine in Verona, Italy. He completed multiple general surgery residencies – the last of which was at Saint Vincent’s Hospital Manhattan in New York. Scarlata completed his surgical oncology fellowship at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Sylvester Cancer Center in Florida.
“As a breast surgical oncologist at Houston Methodist Clear Lake, my goal is to provide the highest quality patient-centered care that results in a personalized treatment plan for each patient,” said Scarlata.
