Dr. Myesa Emberesh believes that children with cancer, although among the most vulnerable patients in the health care field, are entitled to the opportunity to live a full and healthy life. Each one deserves comprehensive care and the chance to be anything they desire. This fully embodies the reason Dr. Emberesh chose to pursue a career in pediatric hematology and oncology.

Dr. Emberesh is well experienced and feels fortunate to have trained in pediatric hematology/oncology at one of the top programs in the country. She is dedicated to her patients and their families. She will devote her time, effort, and her mind to providing quality patient care on a medical, social, and emotional level.

Dr. Emberesh grew up in Libya, where she attended medical school and began her pediatrics career. She moved to the United States to further build her pediatric education and pursue a career in hematology and oncology. Outside of work, Dr. Emberesh enjoys spending time with her family – she has two adorable children – and loves cooking and baking.
