About Jennifer Marie Specht
Jennifer Specht, M.D., is a board certified oncologist at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center and a UW associate professor of Medicine and Oncology.
Dr. Specht specializes in treating women with breast cancer. As our scientific understanding of breast cancer advances, treatment options for patients become increasingly complex.

She supports patient participation in well-designed clinical trials to answer important scientific questions about breast cancer.
Dr. Specht earned her M.D. at the UW. Her clinical and research interests include breast cancer genetics and investigational breast cancer treatments, molecular imaging with FDG PET and DCE-MRI to understand in vivo biology of locally-advanced and inflammatory breast cancer and Triple-negative (ER, PR, and HER2 negative) breast cancer.
