Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

Rare or complex cancers are treated by highly experienced oncologists who have experience in treating patients with that specific type of cancer.

The doctors we list are highly sought after by patients.

We consider experience, designation, patient feedback, hospital reputation and our own experience of working with them amongst many factors in creating the list.

Please submit your inquiry on the website. Upon review of the details, a case manager from our team is assigned. The case manager will assist you with opinion, cost, travel, stay, and appointment with the doctor.

Actual reports may vary from case to case, but carrying the above reports, if you have, would be helpful when meeting the cancer doctor:

  • Blood reports
  • Biopsies
  • Radiology scans (X-rays, CT, MRI, PET scans)
  • List of any drugs you’re taking (prescription and over-the-counter)

The best oncologists treat a relapse of cancer in different ways, such as:

  • Repeat the first line or initial treatment
  • Use a combination of drugs or chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and immunotherapy
  • Targeted treatments or immunotherapy
  • Surgery to remove new tumours

The different specialists in the Cancer department may include the following:

  • Radiation Oncologists use radiation therapy to treat cancer.
  • Medical Oncologists use chemotherapeutic agents for cancer treatment.
  • Surgical Oncologists use surgical procedures for cancer treatment and tumor removal.
  • Nuclear Medicine Specialists use small amounts of radioactive isotopes (radionuclides) to diagnose and treat disease for various disease states.

Many times, one doctor specializes in more than one condition. You can consult with that specialist, depending on your condition.
