Our treatments and services
AOAH provide Medical Oncology and Haematology consulting services. At North Adelaide we partner with Calvary North Adelaide Hospital to deliver the following.
Chemotherapy is an approach to cancer therapy which involves the administration of medicine, usually orally or by injection, which is intended to kill cancer cells or minimise their growth and spread. Chemotherapy can be used in conjunction with other cancer treatments.
Immunotherapy is a type of treatment that is intended to help your own immune system fight cancer. There are different types of immunotherapy for cancer that work in different ways.
Haematology is the medical speciality relating to conditions that affect the blood, and the organs that make the blood as well as cancers of the blood. A Haematologist will look after patients requiring specialist advice for bleeding disorders, or blood cancers, and may prescribe chemotherapy as a treatment option. The Haematologist, may also refer to other specialists participating in the multi-disciplinary team, for instance a Radiation Oncologist if radiotherapy treatment is advised.
Advancing patient outcomes in the future is just as important to us as caring for patients today. Where appropriate, patients may be able to access the GenesisCare global network of clinical trials.
For further information on clinical trial participation, please speak with your treating doctor.
