Organisational support for cancer patients
A cancer diagnosis can be very overwhelming, and the cancer journey a long, hard road to travel.
Icon Oncology’s holistic approach to enabling the right care for all means we don’t only concentrate on putting you at the centre of an integrated network of oncology-focused professionals, programmes and infrastructure, but also ensure you receive the right support too.
