Cancer treatment and your heart
Whilst often successful at treating cancer, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and other cancer treatments can sometimes affect your heart’s normal function.
As part of your treatment plan, your oncologist may recommend seeing a cardiologist to assess your heart and minimise or treat these effects.
GenesisCare has cardio-oncology services and clinics and are available to assist you.
Our cardio-oncology services and clinics see all cancer patients, but if you are having radiotherapy with GenesisCare you are able to access our cardio-oncology services and clinics (where they are available) with no added out of pocket costs. It is what we do to try and ensure that all our patients achieve their best possible life outcomes. Your GenesisCare radiation oncologist will be able to tell you whether you need this for your treatment plan.
Our cardiologist Dr Daniel Cehic discusses the impact of cancer treatment on the heart and how cardio-oncology specialises in helping detect and treat these problems so patients can have their best possible survivorship journey. Click here to listen to the full interview.
