About

Marcel Odaimi

Marcel Odaimi, MD, is a medical oncologist and hematologist at Staten Island University Hospital, where he treats all types of cancer using tailored combinations of chemotherapy, immunotherapy and targeted therapy. His focus is managing gastrointestinal cancers, including esophageal, stomach and pancreatic malignancies, in addition to brain and spinal cord tumors. In addition, he treats benign hematologic conditions such as anemia and blood clotting disorders, and has an interest in blood cancers, including lymphoma and multiple myeloma.

With more than 30 years of experience in the field, he values providing his patients with compassionate, personalized care grounded in the latest evidence-based medicine. “I take the time to talk with patients about their diagnosis and treatment options, including the latest innovations in medical oncology,” he says. “I also listen to their feedback and concerns and create a comforting environment for their care.”

Dr. Odaimi earned his medical degree from the American University of Beirut and received his internal medicine residency training at Staten Island University Hospital. He went on to complete his fellowship in medical oncology at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, one of the top cancer institutes in the United States.

At Northwell Health, Dr. Odaimi provides a multidisciplinary approach to patient care. He works with pathologists, radiologists, surgical oncologists, radiation oncologists and supportive care specialists to create treatment plans for his patients. “We work closely together, and all of our services for patients are under one roof,” he says.

Dr. Odaimi is an assistant professor at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell. His professional memberships include the American Society of Clinical Oncology, the American Medical Association, and the Richmond County Medical Society. He has been a Castle Connolly Top Doctor, New York Metro Area (digital guide) for the last seven years.

One of the best parts of Dr. Odaimi’s job is being able to problem-solve for the benefit of his patients. “Every patient is unique, so every treatment plan and each workday is different,” he says. He also views his job as a vocation. “I feel privileged that I get to develop a close bond with patients that you don’t often see in other professions.”
