About

Sharon Weber, MD, FACS, is a UW Health surgical oncologist and a professor in the Department of Surgery at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health. She specializes in benign and malignant (cancerous) diseases of the gastrointestinal (digestive) tract.

Dr. Weber sees patients with a wide range of liver, pancreas and other abdominal conditions. She treats gastrointestinal tumors, sarcomas (bone or soft tissue tumors) and melanomas (skin cancers). She uses a combination of both minimally invasive and general surgical techniques.

Understanding the uncertainty and fear her patients often face, Dr. Weber prioritizes prompt answers and cutting-edge care. She takes time to listen to her patients and discuss the pros and cons of their options before helping them choose a targeted treatment. She meets patients where they are to help them manage their conditions and achieve the best results.

In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Weber participates in national research focused on improving patient results after surgery by looking at risk factors.

In her free time, Dr. Weber enjoys baking, running, biking and cross-country skiing.

I hope to improve the quality and longevity of life for each of my patients.
