Oleg Krijanovski, MD, PhD

Dr. Krijanovski has been my treating physician for acute leukemia for over three years. Of all the many doctors I have seen, he is the one to whom I would give the highest recommendation. In fact, even my transplant doctor at Stanford has commented many times on how knowledgable Dr. Krijanovski is in the area of transplants for leukemia. In addition, Dr. Krijanovski is kind, caring and respectful. He is intelligent, knowledgeable, thoughtful and creative. I am very thankful that he is my doctor.

Dr. Oleg Krijanovski, «Dr. K» as many call him, is one of the Bay Area’s, if not the world’s, finest hematology oncologists. I met him almost four years ago as a stage-​four lymphoma patient. He was my «second opinion» and immediately became the lead doctor in my battle with cancer. His winsome positive outlook was crucial to helping me face my disease with hope.
He, along with his brilliant team, tackled my lymphomas on all fronts. With training at 2^nd Moscow Medical Institute, Russia and University of Michigan, this highly educated doctor of hematology was able to put me at ease in my bleak situation. We teamed up at fighting the cancer, and he successfully moved me into remission.
As my many questions surfaced, Dr. Krijanovski answered them honestly, tenderly, and in an informed manner. He called in experts in other fields and orchestrated a treatment plan that was comprehensive with my best interest in mind at all times. I trust and respect his ideas and thorough research. He helped me to recognize moments of celebration in my battle with lymphoma. Even four years later, he is still masterfully managing my follow-​up. He is over-​the-​top smart, a life-​long academic, and a family man. It is a nice combination all wrapped up into one human being who has walked with me through my darkest hours. We’ve laughed. We’ve cried. He has my highest praise and respect.
