The National Cancer Centre Singapore (NCCS) is a national and regional centre directed at the prevention and treatment
of different cancers, including thoracic, hepatobiliary, pancreatic, head and neck cancers. It sees over 50% of cancer
cases in Singapore.
As a one-stop specialist centre housing Singapore's largest pool of oncologists, it has state-of-the-art equipment
and employs the latest therapies including mini transplants and targeted therapies which maximise outcomes and
minimise undesirable side effects.
Physically and operationally designed to provide integrated and holistic patient-centred clinical services, it
allows cross-consultation among oncologists of different specialties. Patients can therefore be assessed by more
than one specialist during the same visit. NCCS also conducts clinical and basic research and develops public
cancer education programmes wholly directed at the prevention and treatment of cancer.
