OncoCare Cancer Centre (Singapore) is one of the largest private oncology practices in Singapore, with 8 clinics located across the Singapore’s premier hospitals, including Gleneagles Medical Centre, Gleneagles Annexe Centre, Mount Elizabeth Orchard Medical Centre, Mount Elizabeth Novena Specialist Centre, Royal Square Medical Centre, and Mount Alvernia Medical Centre.
We have an established regional presence across Hong Kong, Malaysia, and the Philippines, and are part of Tamarind Health, supporting a broader network for cancer care in Singapore and the region.
As a comprehensive and integrated oncology centre in Singapore, we support patients with access to a range of diagnostic and treatment services. These include CT scans, MRI imaging, PET/CT scans, radiotherapy, and laboratory services, which are typically arranged in a timely manner, where appropriate. This coordinated approach supports a more efficient cancer care journey in Singapore, while helping to reduce waiting times and uncertainty.
At OncoCare Cancer Centre, our specialists and nursing team are responsive and compassionate, and are committed to providing evidence-based cancer treatment in Singapore alongside personalised cancer care. Patients have access to their treating doctors and care team, supporting continuity of care and a more reassuring experience throughout their cancer treatment journey.
Our team communicates in English, Mandarin, and Malay, with additional support from staff who speak Bahasa Indonesia, Burmese, Tagalog and Vietnamese. Interpreter services can be arranged for international patients seeking cancer treatment in Singapore, where needed.
Led by specialist medical oncologists and palliative care physicians, our team is involved in ongoing clinical practice and research. We offer a range of treatment approaches, including systemic therapy, targeted therapy, molecular diagnostics, and precision imaging, where appropriate. These approaches support individualised cancer treatment plans in Singapore, based on each patient’s condition and clinical needs.
While cancer treatment is a key focus, we also support a more holistic approach to cancer care in Singapore, addressing physical, emotional, psychosocial, and supportive care needs. At OncoCare, we are committed to supporting patients through their cancer journey, with care guided by clinical assessment and individual needs.
Since its founding in 2007, OncoCare Cancer Centre in Singapore has been committed to providing patients the best available cancer care through expert, personalized treatments, driven by state-of-the-art knowledge and making a difference through efficient delivery, effective communication, and compassionate touch.
We seek to cure, relieve, and partner with our patients on their cancer journey by using our understanding of the detection, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of cancer. We aim to reduce toxicity, control symptoms, prevent disfigurement, and eliminate pain, and emotional distress associated with cancer-directed therapy.
We believe that today’s research leads to tomorrow’s cure and our doctors are actively involved in clinical research and trials, and have a dynamic collaboration with regional cancer institutions and laboratories. We have access to the latest commercial imaging, and molecular genetic laboratories associated with world-class science and technology.
