About Carolyn Mulroney, MD

Carolyn Mulroney, MD, is a hematologist and medical oncologist who provides autologous and allogeneic transplants to adults with a wide range of blood cancers and blood disorders, including lymphoma, leukemia, anemia, Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), myelodysplasia, multiple myeloma, light-chain (AL) amyloidosis and graft versus host disease (GVHD).

Dr. Mulroney offers chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy to adults with relapsed or refractory B-cell lymphoma, a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. CAR T-cell therapy harnesses the patient's own immune cells to recognize and kill cancer cells. It is just one of many types of personalized cancer therapies offered at UC San Diego Health.

Dr. Mulroney has had a clinical practice in San Diego since 1992.

She is a professor in the Department of Medicine at UC San Diego School of Medicine, where her research focuses on treatment of refractory lymphomas and Hodgkin's disease, allogeneic stem cell transplants, and graft versus host disease. She completed a fellowship in hematology and oncology at UC San Francisco, and a fellowship in hematology at University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle. Dr. Mulroney completed a residency in internal medicine at Duke University School of Medicine. She earned her medical degree from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. She is board certified in hematology.
