If you have cancer, your primary doctor thinks you may have cancer because of symptoms or test results, or if your primary doctor says you may have cancer, you should seek out a medical oncologist. The sooner you see one, the sooner an optimal treatment plan can be devised.

The treatment plan is based on the type of cancer, stage of the disease, molecular markers, and overall patient health. Medical oncologists may customise a therapy tied to combinations and clinical standards.

Medical oncologists treat cancers with medications like chemotherapy and immunotherapy, while surgical oncologists remove tumors with surgical intervention.

Medical oncologists provide a perspective on preventive measures, especially for high-risk individuals. Such measures may include lifestyle modification, screening, or preventive medication recommendations.

Yes, medical oncologists are certainly trained to provide palliative care that is focused on symptom relief and improved quality of life throughout all stages of cancer, not just at the very end.
