About of Michelle Haber

Michelle Haber is a Pediatric Oncologist based in Sydney, NSW, Australia. She looks after children and young people who are dealing with cancer, and she also helps families make sense of what comes next.


In many cases, her work is about treating cancers that affect the brain and nervous system, such as glioma, medulloblastoma, brain stem cancer, and posterior fossa tumours. She also cares for people with diffuse midline glioma H3 K27M-mutant, and retinoblastoma. These are big, scary names, but the day-to-day focus is clear: good care, steady support, and plans that fit each child.


She also works with cancers of the blood and bone marrow. This can include leukaemias like acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) and acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). At times, care may involve neuroblastoma, Ewing sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, osteosarcoma, and adult soft tissue sarcoma too, depending on age and the specific situation. Ovarian cancer can also be part of her caseload.


Some diagnoses listed for her include embryonal tumours with multilayered rosettes, Ewing sarcoma, and other solid tumours. She works within a team approach, since cancer care usually needs more than one kind of specialist. Over time, that teamwork helps families coordinate treatment, scans, medicines, and follow-up.


Alongside cancer treatment, she may also see related health concerns. That can include delayed growth, and at times musculoskeletal or comfort issues such as bursitis and frozen shoulder, especially when symptoms affect day-to-day life during or after treatment.


Information about her training, work history details, and any research work isn’t listed here, so the exact background can’t be confirmed from this page. Clinical trial details also aren’t listed here.
