About Luke Stanisce

Professional Statement

I am an Otolaryngologist and Head and Neck Surgeon at MD Anderson Cancer Center at Cooper. After graduating with honors from the University of Connecticut, I attended medical school at Cooper Medical School of Rowan University. I then served as the inaugural resident in a newly accredited Otolaryngology–Head & Neck Surgery Residency Program at Cooper University Health Care in Camden, NJ. As the first-ever resident, I was afforded a unique experience immersed in hands-on clinical training, practice management, institutional leadership, and medical education. Training in a city where 40% of the population lived in poverty, I have particular academic interests in the social determinants of health and the delivery of care for underserved patients.

After completing residency, I underwent an additional year of fellowship training at Mount Sinai Beth Israel – Icahn School of Medicine in New York City, focusing on advanced treatments for head and neck cancers and reconstructive surgeries. I specialize in treating benign and malignant disorders of the head and neck, reconstructive surgery in this region, and comprehensive otolaryngology including sinonasal diseases.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, golfing, and all things Philadelphia sports.

    Dr Luke explained what I would be going through very thoroughly. He spent a good hour with me and my wife. He did a scope and multiple biopsies. I almost fainted at one point and he showed me so much compassion. We took in a lot of information during the visit but didn't feel too overwhelmed. We're confident we're on the right path to get healthy again.
