What treatments do medical oncologists provide?

Medical oncologists provide cancer treatment, as they use drugs to eliminate cancer, slow their growth, target specific chemicals involved in cancer growth and spread, and block the effects of hormones that fuel cancer growth. They specifically focus on a medicine-based approach rather than surgical and radiation and offer supportive care.

How does a medical oncologist decide on treatment?

Medical oncologists tailor cancer treatments based on the stage and type of cancer and patient factors such as personal preferences and overall health. They also factor in the guidelines and consider side effects.

Can cancer be cured with medical oncology treatments?

Although no treatment can cure all cancers, medical oncology treatments include chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted hormonal therapy. These therapies can render cancer less severe or asymptomatic for a long time and even cure several cancers when detected early.

How can I prepare for a medical oncology appointment?

From your end, make sure you get all the necessary medical records and make a list of questions you might have about the diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes. You also want to check your insurance and confirm all the legal documents.
