Cancer treatment can be particularly challenging for patients who already have other health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, kidney disorders, liver disease, lung diseases, or autoimmune conditions. These co-existing medical conditions, known as comorbidities, require a carefully planned and personalized approach to ensure that cancer treatment remains safe, effective, and well-tolerated.
At our center, we provide specialized, multidisciplinary cancer care for patients with comorbidities, where treatment decisions are individualized based on the patient's overall health, cancer type, stage of disease, and existing medical conditions. Our team works closely with specialists from various disciplines to optimize medical management while delivering evidence-based cancer treatment.
