Our cancer service is one of the leading cancer centres in the UK. We offer cutting-edge treatments, and have one of the highest clinical trial recruitment rates, which leads to one of the best survival rates in the country.
We are key to delivering tomorrow’s treatments today. We hold national treatment centres for gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) and germ cell tumours, as well as the regional centre for nearly all complex cancer surgery and many diagnostics.
We strive to deliver high quality, comprehensive and patient-focussed care. The video below explains how our teams work together to deliver a joined-up package of support. It covers our Macmillan navigator service, the clinical nurse specialists (CNSs), psych-oncology, our Macmillan Support Service and the Maggie’s centre.
You can also read about how we’re here to support you in our patient information leaflet, which is available in 15 different languages.

It was incredibly efficient, everyone was really kind and friendly, which makes so much difference. They introduced themselves and explained what was to happen.

The doctor and the clinic team in gynaecological cancer outpatients are the most caring and supportive team that I have ever experienced. The quality of care over the last 10 years has been excellent. I would highly recommend this service to anyone.
