The exchange of information between the health professionals involved in the diagnosis and progress of the patient brings positive effects on the treatment plan and a better understanding of the people involved.
The variety of treatment options available to patients requires that they are presented by their medical team in a clear and understandable way. The decision-making process is made easier for patients when the physician is able to offer a wider range of options due to the higher availability of resources.
Multidisciplinary cancer care allows oncologists to provide a full range of services to their patients, including screening and treatment for other diseases. These services are usually provided by specialists who would not normally be associated with conventional cancer treatment. Oncologists can gain access to more data about their patients' health while increasing the efficiency of care.
Oncology practices and clinics can benefit from sharing our multidisciplinary team. Doctors can expand their services without having to increase their staff or the number of their own patients.
Bringing together different health providers that contribute to the holistic care of cancer, can improve the response to cancer treatment by preventing and reducing its side effects.
