About the department
The Department of Oncology at the Hirslanden Clinic St. Anna Lucerne provides the full range of services for the prevention, diagnostics, treatment and follow-up care of patients with malignant and benign neoplasms of internal organs and blood diseases. The department is headed by PD Dr. med. Andreas Himmelmann.
In most cases, the treatment is based on the surgical removal of the tumor, which is complemented by chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy. Chemotherapy is indicated for patients with malignant hematologic diseases. The doctors of the department practice an interdisciplinary approach to treatment, which helps to achieve the most successful results.
A treatment regimen is developed for each patient individually, taking into account his diagnosis, the characteristics of the course of the disease, clinical indicators, age, the presence of concomitant pathologies, etc. Naturally, when planning the therapeutic process, the wishes of the patient are also taken into account. Since such a diagnosis as cancer causes a great emotional shock and fear, psychological support is an important component of treatment. The experienced psychologists help the patient cope with emotions and set him up for a favorable treatment outcome.
Thanks to the presence of progressive diagnostic rooms, laboratories and operating rooms with computerized equipment in the department, the patient receives high-quality medical care in accordance with international standards. All diagnostic studies and therapeutic procedures are carried out in accordance with current clinical protocols. The team of oncologists regularly undergoes advanced training courses, participates in medical conferences, congresses, symposiums, and therefore can guarantee their patients exceptional experience, as well as professional application of classic and innovative treatment methods. An important role is attached to the respectful and humane attitude of the medical staff to each patient.
The department’s range of medical services includes:
Diagnostics and treatment of breast cancer
Diagnostics and treatment of lung cancer
Diagnostics and treatment of gastrointestinal cancers (for example, colon, stomach, pancreas cancers, etc.)
