We provide cancer treatments across all tumour streams including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapies, hormonal treatment, haematology services and symptom management.

Prescribed exercise treatment is considered the gold standard of cancer care. Our oncology physiotherapy team, led by Megan Schmidt, provide physiotherapy assessment, tailored exercise sessions and acupuncture at our centre.
Pharmaceutical Guidance
Our in-house pharmacist provides expert knowledge of pharmaceutical treatments, as well as information and education on complementary and alternative medicine.
Massage Therapy
Specialist massage therapy can be a valuable part of treatment and recovery. Therapeutic massage sessions are available at our centre.
Genetic Counselling
We have Genetic Counselling services available which assist both oncologist and patient to understand the genetic underpinnings of a diagnosis and to identify potential treatment options, information on ongoing follow up (post all treatment) and potentially for other cancer risk. A Genetic Counsellor can also assist with discussing the results as a family; providing either reassurance or predictive testing options with risk assessment and screening advice.

Our centre is designed for comfort, convenience and privacy, and our experienced team is here to support you through the whole of your cancer journey.We are located on the Southern Cross Hospital Northern campus in close proximity to radiology, laboratory and surgical services.
What is Oncology?
Oncology is the area of medicine involving cancer. An oncologist is a doctor specialising in the treatment of cancer either with chemotherapy (medical oncologist) or radiation (radiation oncologist). Other doctors are involved in the treatment of cancer such as surgeons, palliative care specialists (doctors who specialise in the treatment of symptoms from cancer that cannot be cured) and general physicians (who often are involved in the diagnosis of cancer). If you have cancer you are likely to be referred to some of these doctors depending on the type of treatment that is advised. The Oncology Service also consists of wellness specialists; physiotherapy, acupuncture, massage, dietetics and psychology. The Oncology team also works alongside hospices and the Cancer Society www.cancernz.org.nz who provide support to people with the diagnosis of cancer.

Surgical Treatment

Radiotherapy
Radiation therapy uses special equipment to deliver high doses of radiation (beam of x-rays) to cancerous tumours, to kill or damage them so they cannot grow or spread. Normal cells may be affected by radiation, but most appear to recover fully from the effects of the treatment.… More

Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is the use of medicines to kill or reduce the spread of cancer cells. Chemotherapy is given as cycles and may be given once a day, once a week or even once a month.… More

Alternative Treatments
It is very common for people with cancer to want to try other non-medical treatments such as diet or alternative/complementary medicines offered by other practitioners. It is helpful for your oncology team to know what other therapies you might be taking as sometimes there can be interactions with their treatment. More
