What is a role of a Medical oncologist?
Medical oncologists treat patients diagnosed with cancer, helping them maintain the best quality of life during the treatment process.
Medical oncologists work at treating the entire body using whatever medicines are best deemed for that type of cancer depending on the stage.
A Medical oncologist starts work right away when it is discovered that a patient has cancer
Medical oncologists, Radiation oncologists and Surgeons figure out which treatment plan will best attack the cancer. They talk to patients about their types of cancer, different options that are available to fight it and how effective those methods are.
A job of a Medical oncologist is to discuss with the patient what medicines (oral medications, injections ) will best work based on his/her current medical condition. The main focus: to provide as much information and guidance as necessary so that the patient is making a knowledgeable decision.
We want to help our patients manage pain and side effects and try to keep a level of comfort in their lives while going through their cancer treatment.
We journey alongside patients, providing them with efficient tools, support and cutting-edge treatment options so they don’t have to battle the disease alone.
