ROA was incorporated in 1977 as a private practice, professional Service Corporation for providing radiation oncology services. ROA founders Dr. Alan Fidler and Dr. Marcia Richards have since retired but under their leadership ROA grew to the current twelve radiation oncologists who provide services to ten Wisconsin cancer centers. ROA physicians collectively consult over three thousand three hundred Wisconsin residents annually and supervise the delivery of several thousands of radiation procedures yearly. Radiation oncology is a small specialty that is evolving in the rapidly changing medical and high technology environment. We believe that our unique and cohesive larger group structure allows us to provide greater service to our respective cancer centers and patients. This group strategy has allowed ROA to: collectively attend several national and international medical meetings each year, and distribute this medical information efficiently among our members perform outcome studies for various clinical sites, including breast cancer, prostate cancer and sarcomas encourage additional physician subspecialty training, and disease-specific interest or expertise in prostate seed implants, intraoperative radiation therapy, Gamma Knife and LINAC Radiosurgery, 3D conformal radiation, high and low dose rate brachytherapy, and other specialized treatment modalities ROA physicians have adhered to democratic governance and have created a vision of excellence by optimally assimilating the talents of our member physicians. ROA encourages professional growth among its members and requires an extensive formal internal and external performance evaluation and goals review for each ROA physician on at least a yearly basis.
