Profile

Born and raised in Sydney, Australia, Dr Sonia Reichert embarked on her medical career in the United States for clinical training, where she also worked in medical education and authored several books and education material on the US licensing examination.

She completed her Internal Medicine Residency training at SUNY Downstate in Brooklyn, New York City, also serving as Assistant Chief Resident at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and completed her Hematology/Oncology Fellowship at Mount Sinai Hospital where she also served as Chief Fellow. She then moved to California 10 years ago where she has worked as a Hematologist/Oncologist at Woodland Healthcare within Dignity Health for 10 years.  Whilst in this role, she also served as the Regional Director of Oncology Research for the Greater Sacramento area, Director of Genetic Counseling for cancer patients, Director of Integrative Oncology, Director of Quality and Chief of Staff for the Woodland Memorial Hospital.

Dr. Reichert’s philosophy of care is that successful cancer treatment involves taking this journey hand in hand with her patients and supporting their unique medical and personal needs at every step of the way. She is passionate about delivering high quality cancer care to local communities.

Dr. Reichert joined Tahoe Forest Health System in 2023. With her husband, they share three school-aged children together, a goldendoodle, and a rescue cat. She and her family have made Truckee their home and enjoy the mountains, lake activities, skiing, and hiking.

Hi, I'm Dr. Sonia Reichert. I'm a Hematologist and Oncologist and I've been dedicated to caring for patients with cancer and blood disorders for nearly 20 years. It is truly a privilege to do this work and to be a part of my patients lives through such an important time.

I care for patients across the full spectrum of oncology and hematology from a new diagnosis to more advanced cancers as well as blood disorders. I also stay closely involved through treatment and into survivorship.

I see patients at all different points in their journey, whether they've just been newly diagnosed or looking for a second opinion or simply trying to understand their options moving forward. I trained in New York City at Mount Sinai and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and I've spent the last 16 years bringing that experience into a community setting.

What I love about being here at Tahoe Forest Hospital is that I'm able to offer advanced high quality care, including clinical trials, while keeping it close to home for my patients. My approach is very collaborative.

I really believe that the best care happens when we work together. I like to take the time to listen to understand what matters most to each person and to help guide decisions that align with their goals and values.

You are not just receiving care. You're a part of the decision-making process. At your first visit, we'll sit down and really go through everything together.

Your diagnosis, your options, and what comes next. I always want patients to feel comfortable asking questions.

And my goal is for you to leave feeling informed, supported, and not alone in this journey. If you or someone you love is facing a cancer diagnosis, please know that you do not need to navigate it alone.

Our team is here to help support you every step of the way, and we'd be honored to take care for you.

My primary Oncologists, Dr, Kaime and now, Dr. Reichert are top of the line professionals. They demonstrated not only excellent medical knowledge and deductive reasoning in the approach to my treatment, but also displayed genuine warmth and care for my emotional as well as physical health.

Dr. Reichert, the infusion team, and the rest who work at GUCC are the best I've been treated by in my six year, multiple organization cancer journey.

Another informative appointment with Dr. Reichert. Discussed reducing the frequency of my lung CT scans. Also the schedule for the brain MRI and bone marrow biopsy. Appreciate how she involves me in all of these treatment decisions. Repeating myself, but am so happy with my care.
