General Description

As a gynecologic oncologist, Dr. Elena Ratner partners with women throughout their cancer journey, delivering comprehensive, personalized care. Dr. Ratner practices bench-to-bedside research, examining her patient’s tumors and identifying their specific types of cancer. This allows her to design an effective, individualized treatment plan for each patient. In her lab, she also works to develop new chemotherapy and cancer drugs that effectively treat cancer and improve quality of life for her patients. Dr. Ratner is passionate about early detection and prevention of cancers. As director of the Early Ovarian Cancer Detection Program, she helps women who are at high risk for ovarian cancer receive the appropriate screening and prophylactic options. Much of her research also focuses on identifying cancer genes and tumor markers, helping physicians understand which women are at risk for cancer. She hopes that through this important research, she and her fellow researchers can improve prevention techniques and ultimately eradicate gynecologic cancer. Dr. Ratner helps her patients experience a high quality of life throughout treatment and into survivorship by fitting treatment around their lives and providing targeted therapies with as few side effects as possible. She works hard with each patient to preserve a sense of normalcy and to prevent cancer from taking over their lives. As the founder of the Sexuality and Intimacy in Menopause Program, she helps survivors of cancer reconnect with their bodies using a multidisciplinary approach, including counseling, hormone therapy and other techniques. As a result of her commitment to gynecologic cancer care, Dr. Ratner has received many awards for her teaching, research and patient care. Most recently, she was given Yale University Smilow Cancer Center Award for Clinical Excellence.
