Melissa J Scala, NP

As a childhood cancer survivor and now Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Nurse Practitioner, my mission is to transform my personal journey into a source of strength, empathy, and hope for the children and families I serve. Guided by gratitude for the care I once received, I am committed to advocating for each child’s dignity, supporting families through their most challenging moments, and fostering trust through understanding and shared experience. I strive to provide compassionate, evidence-based care that not only addresses the physical aspects of treatment but also nurtures the emotional resilience of patients and their loved ones. My purpose is to bring light, healing, and a sense of possibility to every child’s fight against cancer, ensuring that no patient or family ever feels alone on their journey.
