We offer the most rigorous treatment options in the region. You meet with a team of physicians, typically within three days of diagnosis. We get right to work on developing the most effective treatment plan to help you feel better, faster.

We continue to meet regularly throughout your treatment to monitor your progress and change the treatment approach, if necessary. Our approach to care includes robust support services to treat the whole person, such as support groups and palliative care.

We also cater to your emotional needs after diagnosis. We know the logistics of cancer treatment can be overwhelming.
