Frier Levitt partner Jason Silberberg has been featured in a Crain’s New York Business article titled, “Court Ruling Allows Oncologists To Dispense Medication In Office To Treat Side Effects” by Ethan Geringer-Sameth. The article examines a recent appellate victory by Frier Levitt that allows New York cancer doctors to resume dispensing medications in-office to manage side effects of strong oncology treatments.
