About the department

 

The Department of Oncology and Hematology at the Samsung Medical Center offers the full range of services in these medical fields. The main clinical focuses include diagnostics and treatment of various forms of oncological diseases and blood diseases. The medical team of the department strives not only to prolong the life of patients, but also to improve its quality. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Park Keun Chil.

Cancer treatment requires an interdisciplinary approach, and therefore in order to ensure optimal results, there is maintained close cooperation with the specialists from the Departments of Surgery, Radiation Oncology, Pathology, Radiology.

The experienced doctors of the department select the necessary chemotherapeutic drugs and determine their dosage depending on the type of cancer, the stage of pathology and patient’s general condition.
