We see care differently
We believe care should be focused on you, the individual, not the condition. We believe care should be available when and where you need it most and it should be designed to help give you the best life outcomes possible. This is our vision for your care.
We work to develop a detailed understanding of your needs, so we can design the right care plan for you if you’re being treated for cancer.
Global care
Across the world, we have more than 440 centres to help us bring you the right care. For radiation therapy, that includes 14 centres in the UK, 21 in Spain, 36 in Australia and 300 in the U.S. We also offer cardiology and sleep services at more than 80 locations across Australia. Every year our team sees more than 400,000 people globally.
Our purpose
Designing better care
Our purpose is to design care experiences that get the best possible life outcomes. To give you high-quality care that’s available where and when you need it and is tailored to your particular needs. Care that helps you get on with your life and do the things that are important to you. We do this by approaching care like nobody else.
Everything we do is designed in partnership all the way through the entire care process. That means working with everyone from our clinicians to our technicians, from our internal teams to patients. Because, by working together, we stand a better chance of getting more complete health outcomes for you.

Our history
Our beginning - Our founder's vision
Our beginning started with an individual vision that quickly ignited the commitment from a small but dedicated team. Our founder and CEO is Dan Collins. Dan has a passion for working with his team to transform healthcare. This passion was sparked after Dan supported his father through a terminal illness. After seeing the care process up close, Dan wanted to design and deliver care in a more personal way.
Along with a small group of doctors, Dan led GenesisCare from a single cardiology clinic in 2005, to become a global care leader with more than 5000 employees across 5 countries with more than 440 clinic locations.
This dedicated, global team of healthcare professionals is committed to finding new and innovative ways to provide focused care. Care that’s designed to fit around you and your life. Care that treats you, not just your condition.
Caring for heart
In 2003, Dan approached Dr Geoff Holt who led HeartCare Partners in Brisbane, a practice of seven well-regarded cardiologists. HeartCare Partners led the way for group practice, sub specialisation, expert training and a transition to electronic medical records.
With a shared view of what was possible and an urge for change, Geoff, Dan and the HeartCare Partners ‘7’ developed the right strategy and plans. They brought together like-minded doctors in a network to expand access to care, to make a meaningful difference to care standards and share best practice.
Expanding into cancer
Dan teamed up with a cornerstone investing partner to make it all possible – healthcare company, DCA Group, led by CEO, David Vaux (the retired GenesisCare Chairman). Plans expanded to cover cancer care and cardiovascular disease. Alongside Dan, DCA provided an initial investment to launch the HeartCare network in December 2004. The CancerCare network launch followed shortly after.
Today
More than a decade on, GenesisCare is now the largest provider of cancer care in Australia, the UK and Spain, and the leading provider of cardiovascular and sleep treatment throughout Australia.
We provide radiation therapy for more people in Australia, the UK and Spain than any other care provider. Across our global network, we carry out more than 350,000 radiation therapy treatments every year.
But we want to help even more people. So we’re bringing our services to more places, including regional Australia, Europe and Asia. And we continue to treat everyone referred to us, whatever their financial situation.
To give you the best care we can, we have the largest group of privately practicing cardiologists in Australia.
In 2004, we set out to improve how we monitor your care and outcomes. Nearly 6,000 of you joined our Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) database to gather information about our clinical practices and outcomes. We use this information to learn more about your condition, the available care choices, expected treatment outcomes and how you can make positive lifestyle changes.
Helping you improve the quality of your sleep, can make you feel significantly healthier. So, at The Wesley Hospital, Queensland, Australia, in 1989, we started out as Respiratory and Sleep Specialists with an initial sleep study. Since then, we’ve gone on to become a leading sleep consulting, diagnostic and treatment group for people just like you, through one of Australia’s largest networks of in-patient sleep centres.
Where we are

We have been caring for cancer patients in Spain for almost 30 years, offering greater accessibility to treatments and putting all the necessary resources at our patients disposal to improve their quality of life. Today, we operate 21 cancer treatment centers and more are planned.

New
In May 2020, major U.S. oncology provider 21st Century Oncology’s network of 350+ radiation oncology treatment centers and integrated medical offices became part of GenesisCare. Together, we believe we can increase access to world-class care throughout America.
