UCH MACMILLAN CANCER CENTRE -

LONDON

As treatments for cancer advance and patients require fewer and shorter stays in hospital it is vital that patients are able to access treatments, diagnostics, counselling, information, complementary therapies and support on a totally integrated basis. 

The centre is sited on Huntley Street and University Street, London in a bespoke facility next to the new University College Hospital. Dedicated environments have been created for the following major cancers: women's Health - including gynaecological and breast cancers; men's Health - including prostate and testicular cancers; haematological cancers and sarcoma including leukaemia and bone cancers; paediatric and adolescent cancers including a dedicated 'Teenage Cancer Trust' Unit; head, neck, brain and lung cancers; upper and lower gastro-intestinal cancers. 

The centre houses facilities for clinical research and trials. In addition, the Cancer Risk Management Centre is the first centre of its kind in the United Kingdom and will provide consultations, counselling and screening for those at high genetic or acquired risk or with pre-cancerous conditions. 

This new state-of-the-art centre provides the facilities for cutting-edge clinical research including having the UK's first PET MR scanner and the treatment and holistic support necessary for thousands of patients, their families, friends and carers.
