Elwyn Cabebe, MD

Dr. Elwyn Cabebe is board certified in medical oncology, hospice and palliative care medicine, and internal medicine. He has worked with cancer patients for many years and recognizes that cancer is an uninvited, life-changing condition.

Besides his compassionate patient care, Dr. Cabebe has devoted himself to research. He was the first investigator in the country to conduct a lung cancer screening trial, called the REACT trial, using a genetic test developed here at El Camino Hospital Mountain View. He has helped develop many of today’s modern cancer drugs through his work at Genentech and Stanford University. He believes in medical mission and volunteers his service to California’s indigent Filipino community.
