Oncology services at St John of God Hospital Murdoch
is a rapidly growing service providing quality care for patients
receiving chemotherapy treatments for a variety of conditions
including cancer, haematology disorders, rheumatology and
gastroenterology patients. We have dedicated specialist staff to
meet the treatment needs of this group of patients.
The outpatient chemotherapy service operates Monday to Friday.
St John of God Health Campus offers comprehensive support to
outpatients with pharmacy, pathology, radiology and allied health
professionals including dietician available.
The chemotherapy clinic is easily accessible being on the ground
floor of the main hospital. It is located on the northern side of
Thomas Furlong Ward which boasts panoramic views over the leafy
grounds of the hospital campus.
Generally for your first appointment we will schedule a longer
appointment so that the specialist nurses and or pharmacist can
discuss your treatment in more detail. Patients are encouraged to
have a relative or support person in attendance.
The chemotherapy unit is bright and airy and the treatments are
administered to patients in comfortable leather recliner
chairs.
