Cancer treatment specialists – what we do
Radiation Therapy
Icon has 28 accredited radiotherapy facilities with 32 state-of-the-art linear accelerators (linacs) across South Africa, and some partner facilities in Africa.
Caring for our patients in these facilities are nearly 300 expert clinical oncology-focused professionals, dedicated to providing quality, cost-effective care to you.
Chemotherapy
We also have 22 satellite units, and 3 haematology units, equipping us to ensure you get the right treatment.
Managed Care
Icon Oncology is the leading value-based and care-driven organisation in South Africa. In an environment of escalating healthcare costs that disadvantage the majority of patients, many cancer patients are still not gaining access to quality cancer treatment fast enough. Our business model puts the patient at the centre of care, reduces wastage and costs and improves outcomes.
