AdventHealth Medical Group has expanded its oncology services in West Volusia with the addition of Dr. Mamta Vijayvargiya, a board-certified oncologist. With more than 25 years of experience treating a broad range of cancers and blood disorders, Vijayvargiya is now seeing patients at AdventHealth Fish Memorial in Orange City.
Her clinical focus includes breast, lung and colorectal cancers, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, anemia, and supportive care during chemotherapy.
The addition of Vijayvargiya is part of AdventHealth’s broader efforts to expand access to specialty care across the region. AdventHealth Medical Group – which includes nearly 450 physicians and advanced practice providers across Flagler, Lake, Sumter and Volusia counties – added more than 100 new clinicians to the area in 2024.
“Dr. Vijayvargiya practices the highest standards of whole person care with uncommon compassion,” said Dr. Stephen Knych, chief medical officer at AdventHealth Fish Memorial. “She has a remarkable way of walking beside her patients and truly supporting them through some of the hardest moments of their lives. She is a great asset to this community, adding to the wonderful care provided by our current oncology partners in Florida Cancer Specialists and Mid-Florida Oncology.”
Fluent in English and Hindi, Vijayvargiya earned her medical degree from J.L.N. Medical College at the University of Rajasthan in India. She completed her internal medicine residency at Jersey Shore Medical Center in New Jersey, followed by a fellowship in hematology and oncology at St. Luke’s Roosevelt Hospital Center in New York. She is also trained in anesthesiology and has contributed to cancer research and awareness initiatives.
“Cancer care isn’t just about medications or scans,” she said. “It’s about sitting beside someone when they’re scared. It’s about celebrating the small wins. That’s what I’ve always believed — and that’s what AdventHealth believes too.”
Vijayvargiya is now seeing patients at 1061 Medical Center Drive, Suite 110, in Orange City. To reach her office, call Call386-917-7594.
