“A huge congrats to Minesh Mehta for being named the John and Mary Lou Dasburg Endowed Chair in Radiation Oncology at Baptist Health Miami Cancer Institute!!

It’s been so much fun to see Minesh’s vision for Miami Cancer Institute come to fruition over the last short 7 years since the Institute opened. Patients from South Florida and around the world now routinely seek out not only the advanced technology and clinical trials that we offer, but especially the expertise from world renowned faculty that Minesh has recruited.

We are so appreciative of the tremendous generosity from the Dasburg family for this endowed chair, which will have a long-lasting impact on patients for decades to come – thank you!!

Minesh this is just the beginning and we are all so proud of you and the Institution. It is a privilege to have you as a mentor and most importantly a friend – cheers!!!”
