Since its opening, Koç University Hospital has taken important steps in both diagnosis and treatment in the field of Medical Oncology. We added a second therapy unit to our department, which started out with an outpatient treatment unit capable of treating 22 patients; patient capacity has subsequently increased over time.

In these units, chemotherapy, smart drugs targeting cancer cells, hormonotherapy, and immunotherapy are carried out under the diligent supervision of experienced physicians and nurses. Each treatment unit is committed to providing every patient with comprehensive care including 1 supervising physician as well as supporting nurses, biologists, psychologists, and dietitians specializing in chemotherapy. During these treatments maximum attention is made to ensure each patient’s optimal comfort; treatment days are spent as comfortably as possible in allocated treatment areas with the provision of TV, special treats, and company if requested.
