Cancer care (Oncology)
Oncology is a specialised branch of medicine that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. Oncologists are highly trained medical professionals who specialise in providing comprehensive care to individuals affected by cancer.
Oncology includes different types of cancer specialities, such as medical oncology, radiation oncology, hematologic oncology, paediatric oncology and various others.
Our Department of Oncology is committed to delivering exceptional care for patients with cancer. Our state-of-the-art facilities and advanced diagnostic tools enable us to accurately diagnose and stage cancers, allowing for precise and targeted treatment strategies.
