Where will you find us?
Our centres are dedicated to cancer care
We have 14 centres located across England and these are outpatient cancer-specialist units, which means you can have all your treatments in a safe, clean and comfortable environment, with dedicated cancer doctors and nurses on hand. For some of our highly specialised cancer treatments, patients often choose to travel from further afield, and if needed we can support with travel arrangements so they can easily access these treatments.
The latest treatments from around the world
There are now many ways to treat cancer that have been proven to be safe and effective. We’re at the forefront of many of these, such as modern diagnostics, anti-cancer drugs, the latest radiotherapy systems and personalised medicine. These up-to-date techniques can often have better results, but they’re not available everywhere whereas we offer them to all of our patients.
We’re also the first in the UK to introduce ground-breaking types of radiotherapy that are changing the way cancers of the breast, prostate, lung and pancreas are treated. These treatments are proven to be safe and effective at every cancer stage, often with fewer side effects and shorter treatment times. You can find out more about them here.
The team are all warm, professional and instantly put me at ease, ensuring that the experience was a positive and painless one
