Our team of expert surgical oncologists is committed to delivering personalized treatment plans, utilizing the latest surgical techniques and technologies to achieve the best possible outcomes.

Comprehensive Cancer Care

Our Surgical Oncology services encompass the diagnosis, treatment, and management of various types of cancer. We collaborate closely with medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists, and other specialists to provide integrated, multidisciplinary care tailored to each patient’s needs.

Diagnostic Services

Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective cancer treatment. Our diagnostic services include:

  • Biopsies: Surgical and needle biopsies to obtain tissue samples for histopathological examination.
  • Imaging Studies: Advanced imaging techniques such as CT scans, MRI, PET scans, and ultrasounds to accurately stage and assess tumors.
  • Molecular and Genetic Testing: Testing to identify specific genetic mutations and molecular markers that can influence treatment decisions.

Surgical Treatments

Our surgical oncologists are skilled in a wide range of surgical procedures for cancer treatment, including:

  • Minimally Invasive Surgery: Laparoscopic and robotic-assisted surgeries that offer smaller incisions, less pain, and faster recovery times.
  • Tumor Resection: Complete removal of tumors while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible.
  • Lymph Node Dissection: Removal of affected lymph nodes to prevent the spread of cancer.
  • Reconstructive Surgery: Procedures to restore appearance and function following cancer removal surgeries, such as breast reconstruction post-mastectomy.
  • Cytoreductive Surgery and HIPEC: Removal of abdominal tumors followed by heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy for advanced abdominal cancers.

Specialized Surgical Techniques

We utilize cutting-edge surgical techniques to enhance precision and effectiveness, including:

  • Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy: Identifying and removing the first lymph node(s) to which cancer cells are likely to spread.
  • Oncoplastic Surgery: Combining cancer surgery with plastic surgery techniques to optimize cosmetic and functional outcomes, particularly in breast cancer treatment.
  • Radiofrequency Ablation and Cryoablation: Minimally invasive techniques to destroy tumors using heat or cold.

Multidisciplinary Tumor Board

Our patients benefit from a multidisciplinary tumor board, where a team of specialists reviews complex cases and develops coordinated, comprehensive treatment plans. This collaborative approach ensures that all aspects of the patient’s care are considered, leading to more effective treatment strategies.

Preoperative and Postoperative Care

We provide thorough preoperative evaluations and counseling to prepare patients for surgery. Postoperative care includes pain management, monitoring for complications, and rehabilitation services to support recovery and improve quality of life.

Clinical Trials and Research

Our Surgical Oncology department is actively involved in clinical trials and research, offering patients access to new and innovative treatments. Participation in clinical trials can provide additional options for those with advanced or refractory cancers.

Patient Education and Support

We emphasize patient education, offering resources and counseling to help patients and their families understand their diagnosis, treatment options, and what to expect during the surgical journey. Our support services include nutritional counseling, psychological support, and survivorship programs to address the holistic needs of cancer patients.

Atlas Multi Specialty Clinics is dedicated to providing state-of-the-art Surgical Oncology care, combining expertise, compassion, and innovation to offer the best possible outcomes for our patients.
