Oncology
Our mission is to provide high-quality, evidence-based patient-centered care in an effective and compassionate manner. We strive to respect patient confidentiality, autonomy, and involve them in decision making.
We are also aiming to generate cancer-related awareness in Pakistan and we organize cancer awareness months and seminars to empower masses and general physicians with knowledge about early detection and preventive strategies.
Medical Oncology in Pakistan
Cancer is the second leading cause of death after heart disease with significant morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis of cancer not only affects the individual but it also affects the whole family and is associated with social and monetary disruption. Unfortunately, there are not enough facilities in Pakistan to cater to the need of oncology patients. Keeping the scarcity of oncology setups in Pakistan, it was decided to establish Oncology department in FFH, Rawalpindi to provide treatment to oncology patients.
