Newell W. Johnson is an oncologist based at Johns Hopkins Drive, Camperdown, NSW, Australia.
In day-to-day care, he looks after people dealing with cancers and other complex health problems that can affect the mouth, throat, and wider body. Many patients seen in oncology clinics have head and neck issues, including head and neck squamous cell cancers. Others may be dealing with oral cancers, along with changes in the mouth such as leukoplakia or oral submucous fibrosis. At times, care can also include non-cancer conditions that often travel alongside cancer treatment, like lichen planus or lymphoid hyperplasia.
He also works with people with tumours beyond the head and neck area. This can include adult soft tissue sarcoma, bone tumours, and other related conditions. Some cases involve blood cancers too, such as relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). There are also situations linked to viruses, including human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, and conditions that may come up with HIV/AIDS, such as Kaposi sarcoma. Other infections and inflammatory problems may be assessed in the broader cancer and immune-care setting, depending on what’s going on for the patient.
