Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy drugs target cancer cells to destroy them and stop them dividing further. There are many types of chemotherapy drugs, some based on natural plant compounds and others using man made chemicals. Your consultant oncologist will design a treatment plan specifically for you, utilising the latest advancements in chemotherapy to achieve the best treatment results. Chemotherapy is often used in combination with other treatments such as radiotherapy and surgery.

The chemotherapy treatment and drugs you are given depends on the type of cancer you have, where the cancer is situated, the type of cancer cells and whether or not the cancer may have spread.
