Auckland Oncology

Founded 30 yeas ago, the vision for our practice has always been to provide specialist cancer care in an environment that is welcoming and supportive for our patients.

Knowledge about cancer biology and treatments are continuously advancing through active research. Our medical specialists are committed to continuing their education so they can offer the most effective and innovative cancer care, individualised to each patient.

We have five medical oncologists, two haematologists and six oncology nurses, working as a close-knit team. We are focused on providing the very best information and the most up-to-date treatments available at a world class standard.

We believe it is a privilege to travel with our patients on their cancer journey. Our passion for oncology comes from being able to make a difference for our patients at a difficult time. This is what drives us in our work.

Many journeys with cancer can extend over considerable time, often with unexpected twists and turns along the way. Our dedicated team is committed to sharing this journey with our patients, offering help and support whenever necessary.

From our medical specialists, to our nurses and our administration staff, we like to create an environment where patients feel comfortable and confident during their treatment and care.
