Why choose Spire Southampton Hospital for cancer diagnosis and treatment?
We offer tests and scans for cancers including breast, bowel and prostate to patients across Southampton, Hampshire and The New Forest.
Fast diagnosis at our one-stop breast clinic
At our one-stop breast clinic you'll see an experienced consultant breast surgeon and have diagnostic tests in the same visit. This ensures your concerns are dealt with quickly without having a prolonged wait for results.
At the initial assessment, your consultant will discuss your concerns and take a full medical history. They will also carry out a breast examination to decide which diagnostic tests you will have, suited to your individual needs.
Specialists in liver cancer treatment
We run an interventional oncology service providing a range of treatments for primary and metastatic liver cancer (cancer that starts in another part of your body and then spreads to the liver).
We are the world's leading centre for Chemosaturation therapy (CHEMOSAT®) for the treatment of liver cancer.
Chemosaturation therapy involves temporarily isolating the liver from the body’s blood circulation and delivering concentrated doses of an anti-cancer drug directly to the liver, “saturating” the entire organ. Because the liver is isolated from the rest of the body, the anti-cancer drug can be given at higher concentration levels than is possible in systemic chemotherapy.
