The clinic specialises in geriatric surgery, offering bespoke services tailored for elderly patients undergoing surgical or cancer treatments.
Our clinic boasts a multidisciplinary team that includes geriatric specialists, surgeons focused on older patients, experienced anesthetists, specialist nurses in geriatrics, and a physiotherapist.
In our clinic, we conduct a thorough and complete assessment aimed at understanding the patient's functional ability, physical and mental health, as well as their social and economic circumstances.
This allows us to pinpoint risk factors for decreased function, guiding us to decide on the best course of action, whether that's gearing up for surgery or continuing with treatment, and offering tailored clinical advice.
