He was one of the early pioneers in bone marrow transplantation at M.D. Anderson Hospital, and has headed hematology/oncology and bone marrow transplantation departments at St. Louis University and Georgetown University. He performed the first autologous transplants in myeloma and Hodgkin’s disease and has held a leadership role in blood and lymph node cancers. He has built strong relationships, nationally and internationally, while working in academia and research, and as a specialized clinician. Dr. Spitzer is extensively published, with more than 300 manuscripts and articles, and is responsible for the development of curative regimens for Hodgkin’s lymphoma and other hematologic malignancies of which we now consider standard of care.
