World-leading expertise
From the moment you receive your diagnosis you will want the very best specialists on your side. As a specialist cancer hospital, The Royal Marsden brings together world leaders in all fields of cancer care. Our unrivalled reputation is built on this.
Cancer research
Not only are our doctors, surgeons and clinical staff internationally renowned for their commitment to the highest quality patient care, they are also responsible for some world-leading research into new diagnostic techniques and treatments.
Some of their achievements over the last five years have included:
- research on ground-breaking drugs such as Herceptin and Tamoxifen
- pioneering new techniques in robotic surgery
- new techniques in stem cell transplant treatment.
In fact, The Royal Marsden and its academic partner, The Institute of Cancer Research, have discovered or developed more new anti-cancer drugs than the National Cancer Institute in the USA.
Care throughout the cancer journey
We provide every patient with the best possible start from the time cancer is suspected or diagnosed through treatment to discharge and follow-up.
From your first appointment to your last, we can assure you that your consultant will personally manage your care every step of the way.
