Dr. Watson completed his residency in Internal Medicine and his fellowship in Medical Oncology and Hematology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. In his final year, he served as Chief Fellow.
He has performed research in the area of “physician-patient communication” and his practice philosophy is to focus on excellent communication with his patients and their families. He views himself as an advisor and educator for his patients with the goal of helping them make the best treatment decision for their individual situation. Dr. Watson treats patients with all types of cancers and blood disorders, and his clinical interests include lung cancer, lymphoma, melanoma, and cancers of the head and neck.
Outside of medicine, Dr. Watson enjoys fishing, playing the guitar and spending time with his wife, who is a pediatric oncologist at CHKD, and his children.
