Comprehensive Medical Oncology

Medical oncology is a key specialty in the fight against cancer. It not only studies the different types of tumors, but also leads their treatment through a clinical, human, and holistic approach. Its importance lies in the ability to offer continuous, personalized care based on scientific evidence—from initial diagnosis to long-term follow-up.

Every patient is unique. That’s why treatments are tailored not only to the type of cancer, but also to overall health, emotional needs, and family circumstances. Which treatment is best? What are the available options? Medical oncology doesn’t just provide answers—it provides support. It coordinates therapies such as chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy, always with a clear goal: to improve your quality of life, preserve your independence, and help you regain control.

How is an oncology consultation carried out at Clinic Santa Maria?

At Clinic Santa Maria, we take a holistic approach to every case. From the first consultation, the medical oncologist reviews your medical history, requests the necessary tests, and designs a treatment plan tailored to you—your diagnosis, your pace, your life. Here, there are no standard protocols—only care designed for real people.

Our approach is multidisciplinary. This collaboration allows us to address the physical, emotional, and functional effects of cancer in a comprehensive way.

We listen, we guide, and we support you. From day one, you are surrounded by professionals committed to your well-being. Because treatment isn’t only about destroying cancer cells—it’s also about restoring strength, stability, and confidence.

When should I see an oncologist?

Medical oncology is aimed at anyone diagnosed with cancer who requires specialized medical treatment, whether in the early stages or in more advanced phases of the disease. It is also key for those seeking a second opinion, treatment adjustments, or personalized follow-up.

This service is especially helpful during moments of uncertainty: after receiving a diagnosis, when choosing a treatment, or when side effects begin to affect the body and mind.

We care for adult oncology patients of all ages, with various types of cancer, adapting to their physical, emotional, and social needs. Because we know every case is different—and every story deserves unique care.

And you, where are you in your journey? Wherever it may be, we’re here to help.

Frequently asked questions about Oncology

What does a medical oncology consultation at Clinic Santa Maria include?

In the first consultation, the medical oncologist conducts a thorough case review: previous reports are examined, necessary tests are requested, and a personalized treatment plan is outlined. Emotional aspects are also addressed, and all your questions are answered. From there, a follow-up plan is defined, and continuous communication is established.

We know a diagnosis brings many doubts. That’s why our consultations are not just medical appointments—they are spaces to guide, support, and walk with you toward the most appropriate treatment.

Yes, it is highly recommended. If you have lab results, biopsies, imaging tests, or clinical reports, please bring them with you. The more information we have from the start, the more accurate our assessment will be—and the faster we can begin planning your treatment.

You may also prepare a list of symptoms, questions, or medications you’re currently taking. At Clinic Santa Maria, we want you to feel heard from the very first moment. Bringing your medical history is the first step toward receiving safe, personalized oncology care.

Usually, no. The first oncology consultation focuses on understanding your case thoroughly and defining next steps. In some cases, if all tests have already been completed, treatment planning can begin right away. In others, further studies may be needed before starting.

The most important thing is: you are not alone. Our team will guide you through each stage—clearly and at your pace. At Clinic Santa Maria, we prefer to move forward safely, with the full professional support you deserve.

At Clinic Santa Maria, we do not offer chemotherapy or immunotherapy treatments. Our medical oncology consultations are focused exclusively on providing a second opinion regarding your diagnosis and treatment options. Each case is evaluated individually to deliver a thorough, evidence-based assessment tailored to your specific situation.

Absolutely. In fact, we encourage you to come with a relative or someone you trust, especially for the first visits. Facing a cancer diagnosis is not easy, and emotional support can make a big difference.

Also, two ears hear better than one: sometimes, sharing the information helps clarify treatment plans and medical decisions. At Clinic Santa Maria, we care for you—and those who care for you. Because when someone receives a diagnosis, their support network becomes part of the healing journey.

You will receive comprehensive support—medical, physical, and emotional. Our medical oncology team will be by your side at every stage.

At Clinic Santa Maria, we don’t just treat the illness—we care for the person. You’ll be supported before, during, and after treatment. Because for us, care never stops.

At Clinic Santa Maria, we provide close, personalized, and well-coordinated medical care, delivered by a top-level oncologist with extensive experience and a distinguished track record. We don’t just treat the disease—we accompany the person through every step of the journey.

In addition, we maintain constant communication with each patient, reinforcing trust and peace of mind during such a delicate time. Here, human care is just as important as medicine.

We work closely with other healthcare professionals in the clinic to ensure complete, coordinated care.

Our medical team works as one to make sure all aspects of your health are addressed. At Clinic Santa Maria, the oncologist doesn’t work alone—every specialty contributes to your well-being.

In some cases, yes. When treatment is already underway and your clinical status allows, part of the follow-up can be done via phone or video consultation.

This is especially useful for answering questions, assessing side effects, or reviewing test results without needing to travel.

However, there are key moments when in-person care is essential. At Clinic Santa Maria, we combine technology and human connection so you always feel supported—wherever you are.

Once active treatment ends, we begin the follow-up phase. This includes regular check-ups, blood tests, imaging studies, and guidance on healthy lifestyle habits.

We also pay attention to the emotional aspects that can arise after treatment.

Finishing treatment doesn’t mean the care stops. At Clinic Santa Maria, we continue with you—answering questions, supporting your recovery, and guiding you through each step. Because closing one chapter also requires attention, presence, and trust in what comes next.
