Malvina Fulman, MD, is a medical oncologist and hematologist with an interest in breast cancer. She practices at Northwell Health Cancer Institute Queens Medical Associates, a group of seven oncologists and a palliative care doctor. The doctors and staff within this group speak more than 10 languages, which helps them to accommodate the cultural diversity of Queens. Dr. Fulman speaks Russian, Georgian and English. "The idea behind our group is to help our patients in the best possible way," Dr. Fulman says. "It's much easier when you can relate to your doctor in the same language. We understand not only the medical part. We also understand the cultural part, so we can address those issues as well." Dr. Fulman was inspired to become a doctor after an aunt died of breast cancer when Dr. Fulman was 14. "You want to help your family and to help other people as well," she says. After finishing her medical education at Tbilisi State Medical Institute in Georgia, she completed an internship at Republican Hospital in Tbilisi, Georgia, and a residency and fellowship at Cabrini Medical Center/ Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Dr. Fulman is board certified in medical oncology and hematology. She is also a Fellow of the American College of Physicians and belongs to the American Society of Clinical Oncology, and she has a teaching appointment at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell. One of the best parts of Dr. Fulman’s job is seeing her patients reach milestones with their families —graduations, weddings, and anniversaries. "I enjoy when I go to work and see patients who came to me five, 10, 15, 20 years ago, and they're still around and they're still okay," Dr. Fulman says. "It's really special."
