Surgical Oncology
Surgical oncologists treat cancer using surgery, including removing the tumor and nearby tissue during a operation. This type of surgeon can also perform certain types of biopsies to help diagnose cancer.
We adopt a comprehensive approach to treating cancer. Surgeries are combined with chemotherapy, radiation therapy, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), etc., wherever possible for the most effective treatment. Surgical oncologists at St Theresas Hospital are also equipped to perform minimally invasive surgeries that do not leave any scars. The Department of Surgical Oncology brings to the bedside the best diagnostic acumen coupled with state-of-the-art surgical expertise, including robotic surgery.
