San Diego County’s radiosurgery pioneers.

At CyberKnife of Southern California at Vista, the only thing new about radiosurgery is the exceptional delivery system that CyberKnife’s new state-of-the-art system provides us. But we’ve been leaders in radiosurgery in San Diego County since our Dr. David Hodgens treated the region’s first radiosurgery patient. Since then, Dr. Hodgens and the other doctors on our radiosurgery team have treated the vast majority of radiosurgery cases in the county, about 80% of them.

Today, no other team can match our volume of radiosurgery experience or our involvement in the many advancements San Diego has seen in radiosurgery s. And we are continuing our tradition of innovation by bringing a new generation of CyberKnife power, efficiency, accuracy and flexibility to support our surrounding medical communities in the fight against cancer.
