Through the generous support of our community, we have a state-of-the-art, purpose built radiation therapy unit staffed by highly qualified and experienced team lead by Dr Chris Fosker.  Our radiation therapy alliance with Dana-Farber Brigham Cancer Center ensures that our RT unit provides the same level of treatment, care and outcomes at international standards, by using the same treatment systems, software, RT protocols, and quality assurance programmes that are utilised at Dana-Farber Brigham Cancer Center.

Your health insurance will cover a portion of your service/appointment cost. In an effort to lower your healthcare costs, the Centre does not charge a co-pay, however donations towards your balance are greatly accepted. If you are currently uninsured, your costs may be covered by our Equal Access Fund. Doctor referrals are required for these appointments.
