Emeryville Pleasant Hill Pinole Request an Appointment“Caring for oncology and hematology patients has been my true passion since I was younger. Having had personal family experiences with cancer, including my mother, has allowed me to witness both the patient’s and the physician’s perspectives. The field of oncology and hematology is advancing rapidly; I strive to provide the most advance, comprehensive and individualized care. I believe that open and honest communication is a vital component of oncology care; I will take time to listen and care for each of my patients with compassion and dignity that they deserve. Any medical illness, especially a diagnosis of cancer can be challenging and overwhelming; as your medical oncologist, I will be here to guide and support you and your loved ones every step of the way.”

Feb 27, 2025She is personable, warm and highly skilled physician. You know you're in good hands with Dr. Blankenship.
Feb 26, 2025She takes all the time necessary to make sure that I understood everything. The doctor does not talk down to the patient, but explains things so that I understand not only the past, but what my future treatments will be she is kind in a very trying circumstance. She is someone I would recommend without any reservations
Feb 24, 2025I would tell them that she spends as much time as needed with her patients. This results in long waits, but when it is their turn they will get all the time they need.
Feb 24, 2025Dr Blankenship is one of my best Doctors and takes great care of me. I appreciate her thoroughness going over my bloodwork and how easy it is to talk with her. I highly recommend her!
