Our dedicated oncology services for breast cancer
The administration of chemotherapy and support therapies is delivered by our team of skilled, experienced oncology nurses, a consultant oncologist and the wider support team.
If a patient requires radiotherapy they will be referred to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary to continue their private treatment, remaining under the continued care of their oncology consultant.
Our multidisciplinary private cancer care team work closely together to provide wrap around patient care. The team includes:
The team will work with the patient to plan a treatment schedule and will discuss with them how long the treatments are likely to take. When being discharged from hospital our nursing team will liaise with consultant, GP and community based staff to ensure the discharge process is appropriate to individual patient needs.
We have a close relationship with local cancer support groups and charities in and around Aberdeen, Angus and Moray, and can make appropriate referrals to them for ongoing support. In addition, all patients are welcome to attend the "Breast Friends" support group which meets monthly at our hospital.
The Sunflower Suite has recently been awarded the Macmillan Quality Environmental Mark (MQEM) – a quality framework that recognises cancer environments that go above and beyond in the way they create their service that understands the needs of patients.
Accessing private healthcare is easy, whether you choose to pay directly or use private medical insurance.
If you are paying for yourself, we can usually offer an upfront cost which you can then choose to pay in full or access one of our easy payment options.
If you have insurance, we can arrange direct settlement with your insurance provider, although you should check in advance to see if your treatment is covered. For more information, visit our private medical insurance page.
