The London Clinic Cancer Surgery Clinic
Receiving the news that you have cancer is devastating enough- you shouldn’t also have to worry about the quality of care you are going to receive or the knowledge and skills of the professionals treating you. The London clinic cancer surgery clinic is a state of the art facility built with you, the cancer victim, at the heart of it all.
Why Choose the London Clinic Cancer Surgery Clinic?
It took eight floors and £80m, but the London Clinic Cancer Surgery Clinic is devoted entirely to the diagnosis, treatment, and curing of all types of cancer. Their mission was to provide a facility that was completely centred around the patient and to offer the absolute best in technology and professional staff. The London Clinic Cancer Surgery Clinic takes a holistic approach to treating cancer and every aspect of the facility is dedicated to making each patient as comfortable as possible.
The London Clinic was already offering some of the most refined techniques for diagnosing and treating cancer, but with the completion of their new facility, they also unveiled something that would change cancer surgery; radio surgical technology.
CyberKnife and RapidArc
While the names may sound foreign, these two treatments are completely changing the way that cancer is treated. Truly revolutionary, hundreds of thousands of patients have already been treated with this new technology.
CyberKnife, for many patients, is a substitute for traditional surgery. Non-invasive and able to treat both cancerous and non-cancerous tumours, it offers an alternative for patients whose condition has been deemed inoperable or too complex. This procedure can be used on every area of the body and is relatively pain free.
The London Clinic Cancer Surgery Clinic will be one of the first hospitals in the UK to offer RapidArc treatments to cancer patients. This new technology is called radiotherapy and inserts radiation straight into cancerous tumours to kill the cells and shrink the tumour. One of the major advantages of this treatment (other than the direct radiation that reduces the risk of damage to healthy tissue) is that the treatment time is much shorter than traditional radiation therapy and patients can be finished and out the door in a matter of minutes.
Traditional Cancer Surgery
If it is determined that traditional cancer surgery is the best option for your individual needs, the London Clinic Cancer Surgery Clinic offers some of the best facilities available as well as the most highly trained surgical professionals.
Most surgeries are outpatient procedures and the outpatient department has 12 different departments to offer as well as dedicated professionals who are available 24 hours a day to answer your questions, give you instructions, and get you back on your feet in no time.
After your procedure, the London Clinic Cancer Surgery Clinic has programs to help you deal with the stress and recovery of cancer surgery. They even offer a cancer fatigue therapy program as well as several others to help you on your continued path to recovery.
