I am the Site Director of Radiation Oncology at WellSpan York Cancer Center and formerly Johns Hopkins faculty attending physician. I specialize in treating tumors of the prostate, brain, lung, and head & neck. Radiation treatment for these tumors includes brachytherapy (seeds), stereotactic radiosurgery/stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), and proton therapy. I led the Hopkins team that developed the SBRT program at the Johns Hopkins Hospital and treated the first SBRT patient at Hopkins.
I strive to give every one of my patients the same care I would give my own family. I think a physician needs three things to succeed in this way: (1) The physician has true, deep concern for his patient and really understands that the patient's life is being entrusted to him; (2) the physician is experienced and knowledgeable and always up-to-date; and (3) the physician is able to access the state-of-the-art technology for his patient. Cancer treatment is absolutely one of the most difficult times in a person's life and when a cancer patient entrusts the doctor with his or her life, only with the most serious commitment can the doctor be allowed to accept this trust. This is my commitment to my patients.
I was born in Jerusalem, Israel. I am married and a father of two. I am a pianist and an avid cyclist.
Ratings and comments display for WellSpan Medical Group employed doctors who have a minimum of 30 completed patient surveys.
Dr Shokek is one of the most dedicated to his patients that I have come in contact with. His knowledge and expertise have a way of creating a "comfort zone" that is attempted by others but seldom achieved.
Dr. Ori Shokek is probably one of the best physicians that I've ever seen for a medical visit, procedure, treatment and follow-up. Dr. Shokek is all of the things that I wish all physicians were: compassionate, kind, caring, knowledgeable of oncology, and was able to explain my treatment plans to me thoroughly enough for a 6-year old to understand without being demeaning or condescending. I was even impressed with his artistry when drawing me a picture of what would take place during a medical procedure that concerned me simply outstanding! The most impressive quality of Dr. Shokek was that as I experienced symptoms of radiation treatment, I was never caught off guard because he well prepared me for the possible side effects.
The best doctor I ever have had
Outstanding medical do tor
In the past months that have been going to the york cancer center all of the enployees have been very good along with dr. Shokok.
Excelent
Ori Shokek is always concerned about my well-being. He is an amazing doctor.! So very glad he's on my side.
In his parting advice I do not think he was taking into consideration my age of 74, the fact that I have I have been shot twice, had my right shoulder operated on several times and have had five back surgeries.
I have been seeing Dr Ori Shokek for the last 5 years him and his staff have always been very professional and kind to me.
Great
