About

Renu Hausen

Renu Hausen, MD, is a board-certified radiation oncologist with privileges at Huntington Hospital. She has more than 25 years of experience treating an entire spectrum of cancerous tumors. She specializes in highly precise Gamma Knife stereotactic radiosurgery for brain tumors; stereotactic body radiation therapy for tumors of the spine, breast, lung, prostate, and other parts of the body; and precision brachytherapy for skin cancer and uterine cancer.

Dr. Hausen’s goal is to provide compassionate, comprehensive care. “I like to spend a good deal of time with patients and their families so that I can understand their hopes and goals for treatment,” she says. Another priority is to advance patient care through clinical research. Dr. Hausen is actively involved in studies for rectal cancer, head and neck cancer, and prostate cancer. She was instrumental in designing a radiation treatment de-escalation protocol for breast cancer for Northwell Health.

“My father was a pediatrician, so I knew I wanted to be a doctor from a young age,” she says. While earning her medical degree at the University of Texas Medical School, Dr. Hausen discovered that radiation oncology appealed to her because the specialty combines math, physics, and technology with patient care. She went on to complete her residency in radiation oncology at NYU School of Medicine.

At Northwell, Dr. Hausen works with a team of professionals, including pathologists, diagnostic radiologists, medical oncologists, surgical oncologists, nurses, radiation technicians, and integrative health specialists to devise personalized treatment plans. Dr. Hausen is also certified in cancer nutrition and can help patients make dietary and other lifestyle modifications as part of their care plan.

In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Hausen is assistant professor at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell. She is also a member of the American Society for Radiation Oncology and is involved with the American Cancer Society as well as other local cancer charities.

For Dr. Hausen, the best part of her job is being able to provide comfort to people who are facing a challenging diagnosis. “There’s a tremendous amount of fear associated with cancer, and it’s gratifying to alleviate patients’ concerns, whether this is through achieving remission or improving their quality of life through treatment.”
