Our Treatment Approach

Decisions Made by a Multidisciplinary Tumor Board

No single specialist decides alone. Each case is reviewed together by our tumor board, so that surgery, radiation, medical and cellular treatments are combined in the right order for the individual patient.

Who Sits on the Board

  • Medical Oncologist
  • Radiation Oncologist
  • Surgical Oncologist
  • Pathologist
  • Radiologist
  1. Assessment Tumor Board Review

    The multidisciplinary oncology board reviews the case together, from imaging to pathology.

  2. Specialist Input

    Medical oncology, radiation oncology, surgical oncology, pathology and radiology contribute to one shared view.

  3. Treatment Plan Personalized

    The plan is tailored to the cancer type, stage, general health and the patient's own preferences.

  4. Surgical Choice

    In suitable cases, minimally invasive and robotic surgery is prioritized.

  5. Combination When Needed

    Surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy are planned together or in sequence.

Our Signature Approach

Minimally Invasive & Robotic Surgery

Instead of large incisions, suitable operations are performed through small openings using laparoscopic or robotic techniques. The tumor board decides whether this approach is appropriate, based on the size, location and stage of the tumor.

Why Patients Benefit

  • Less tissue trauma
  • Less pain and lower bleeding risk
  • Shorter hospital stay
  • Faster return to daily life
  • Better cosmetic outcome
  • Suitability confirmed by the tumor board

Assessment

Suitability is determined after imaging and tumor board review.

Hospital Stay

Around 2 to 5 days on average for robotic and laparoscopic surgery.

Recovery

First check at 2 to 4 weeks, then every 3, 6 and 12 months.

Minimally invasive or robotic surgery is not suitable for every patient or tumor. The final decision always rests with the multidisciplinary tumor board.

Surgery, Cells, Drugs & Radiation
