Our state-of-the-art medical and surgical facilities, coupled with rehabilitation and palliative services, ensure that patients receive the full spectrum of care they require.

As pioneers in private healthcare in Southeast Asia, we were among the first to introduce proton beam therapy, an innovative form of radiation therapy that utilizes protons instead of X-rays to treat advanced cancer. Through such advanced procedures, we aim to expand treatment options, minimize the side effects of cancer treatment, and enhance survival outcomes for our patients.

Our team of experienced cancer specialists at Mount Elizabeth Hospitals and Parkway Cancer Centre is committed to providing compassionate and comprehensive care to all patients. Cancer care at Mount Elizabeth Hospitals is more accessible than you may think.
