Why Choose UCC

At University Cancer Centers, we know that time is of great essence. We believe that immediate and accurate treatment combined with ambience are the most important attributes of cancer treatment for the fastest recovery. UCC offers an alternative to the treatment services commonly available at hospitals. Our highly qualified and experienced physicians personally take care of our cancer patients with no students standing between you and the attending physician.

Because we believe in innovation, we publish our patients’ outcome data to showcase our work and advance our cancer treatment guidelines.

University Cancer Centers is a private facility where physicians work with freedom and peace of mind to prescribe what is best for the patient, unlike at other facilities where there may be significant political and economic pressures to do otherwise.

Cancer Treatment

University Cancer Centers approaches cancer treatment in an organized and scientific manner that prioritizes the patient experience and outcome.

Patients’ personalized treatment plans depend upon their diagnosis, stage of the disease, and general condition.

We offer a range of cancer treatments to attack the tumor with minimal damage to the rest of the body. It is our goal to facilitate your treatment in a personalized and safe way.

At University Cancer Centers, we use a systematic and individualized approach to address our patients’ unique needs. Our approach includes:

Disease Diagnosis: This is one of the most important stages in the management of patient treatment. It helps us understand the extent of the primary disease and if it has spread elsewhere in the body. We have advanced imaging machines including MRI, Mammogram, PET, and CT Scanners. If required, a biopsy may be necessary at this stage.
Treatment Plan and Delivery: After the Cancer diagnosis, our team of specialists will formulate a treatment plan for the patient. You will always know what your next steps are.
Supportive Care: We provide a patient-friendly environment that helps our patients and their families through their treatment journey.
