A dedicated team of Oncology Nurse Specialists compliment our oncologists. They are trained in all aspects of chemotherapy, including administration, management of side effects, counselling and all issues relating to cancer.
Scalp Cooling
We now offer scalp cooling treatment for patients receiving chemotherapy.
Scalp cooling is a method used for lowering the temperature of the scalp, restricting the amount of blood reaching the hair folicles thereby protecting them from the effects of the concentrated chemotherapy drugs carried in the blood stream.
