Philosophy of Care
Dr. Bewley believes in taking time to build therapeutic relationships with his patients in order to effectively guide them through the often challenging and intense treatment necessary to treat head and neck tumors.
Clinical Interests
Dr. Arnaud Bewley is a fellowship trained head and neck cancer and reconstructive surgeon whose practice focuses on the comprehensive management of tumors of the head and neck. This primarily involves the surgical management of benign and malignant tumors of the face, mouth, throat, neck, and thyroid. He has a special interest in using microvascular free-flap techniques to maximize a patient’s post-operative appearance and function.
Research/Academic Interests
Dr. Bewley's research interests:
- Advanced Skin Cancers: Designing treatment protocols that improve the chances of cure and decrease treatment related side effects
- Transoral robotic surgery: Using minimally invasive transoral techniques to remove head and neck tumors and potentially avoid the toxicity of chemotherapy and radiation therapy
- Cost of care for head and neck cancer: Identifying underlying factors contributing to increases in the cost of care for head and neck cancer patients and designing protocols that promote cost-effective utilization of health care resources
- Education & Simulation: Developing novel simulations to train residents in the management of acute and emergency clinical scenarios
