Welcome to the London Oncology Clinic
You are probably visiting this website either because you have recently been diagnosed as having cancer, or because you are a relative, friend or carer of someone who has.
You may be trying to find out what your options are for treatment and how to access them; you may seek a second opinion; or you may just want the reassurance of understanding better the implications of your diagnosis.
We know from our own extensive experience in treating and talking to people with cancer (and their relatives) that you are likely to be seeking two things. First, you want to find the very best treatment possible, using the latest techniques and the most advanced drugs. And second, at this time more than any other in your life, you need to be treated as an individual in a caring and supportive way, not as a patient-number being hurried through an anonymous process.
That is why we set up the London Oncology Clinic in 2005.
