My name is "Dr.Steve" Vasilev and I'm  a board certified ObGyn and gynecologic oncologist in active practice, involved in teaching, research, and writing on advances in womens health care in both mainstream and complementary areas. I've been online for about 10 years, so you may have seen me on About.com as their 2008 Ovarian Cancer Guide, or as an Expert status author on EzineArticles.com, or on Knol.....and on and on. Actually, you can pretty much find me all over the internet getting the word out on womens health in a balanced and understandable way.

My background? Let's start with a medical degree from the Keck School at the University of Southern California, where I was elected to the Alpha Omega Alpha national medical honor society. I completed my residency and fellowship training at the USC-Los Angeles County Women's Hospital and the USC Kenneth Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center. So, I am board certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology in both Obstetrics and Gynecology and in Gynecologic Oncology. Over the last 20 years I have been in academic, private and managed care practices. So, I have taken care of patients just like you in all possible settings. I have taught and been a faculty member at three major universities and was Director of Gynecologic Oncology at the City of Hope Comprehensive Cancer Center in Duarte. I am currently Professor level clinical faculty at USC and UCLA, and also associated with UCI in research endeavors. 

I've been listed in Best Doctors and Top Physicians for quite a few years running, but that is not the most important part. At the end of the day, the most important part is that I have taken care of patients just like you for many many years and have a lot of solutions that are either on this website, or will be soon. So, while all these credentials hopefully prove that I am who I say I am, you will see that what I have to offer are personal solutions for many problems.....solutions that actually work. Or, if there is no good solution, you will find out why and where to look for at least some help.  On a very personal note, my interest in health care, and cancer care in particular, started some 30 years ago when my dad died of cancer. I watched a very painful but thankfully brief battle which really did not include what I consider to be a holistic approach to give the best chance for not only beating cancer but also maintaining quality of life. All of my training has at its core the credo of helping patients achieve a shot at cures, while at the same time trying to provide tools for maintaining their spirit and soul.

My training background is not all mainstream medicine, called allopathy. I also attended chiropractic school but didn't complete it because I realized that my full scope of practice to help cancer patients would be limited. At that point I had already been involved in cancer research. Anyway, chiropractic school kept my mind open to alternative and complementary care options. Also... and this is important.... I spent years of extra time taking advanced courses in nutrition and biochemistry. All of this diverse background and training helps me help you separate truth from fiction and realistic integrative hope from quackery. 

Our investigative research team for this project was scattered all around the world and that is the way we work at Cureology.com.  For each project, there is a different diversified collection of experts that are assembled just right for the job, led by me as the primary investigator and author.

Remember, the truth is out there. Seek it, seize it when you see it and choose wisely. Once you are armed with quality information, remember, it's your body....your choice! 

Warmly,
