Approach to care

Cancer treatment is multidisciplinary. It includes the combination of Chemotherapy, Radiation therapy, Surgery and Palliative care. The challenge is to select the right treatment to fit the patient's disease. The other challenge is to be realistic with the patient and his or her family regarding outcome expectations in order to avoid unnecessary treatment that may prolong patient and family suffering. The application of new aggressive therapies is indeed very strict and selective.
