The Minister of Health, Mr Michael Hadjipandela, visited this morning the German Oncology Centre in Limassol, which is celebrating four years of operation this year since its opening in October 2017.
Mr. Hadjipandela was briefed on the innovative, as he described them, treatments and machines by the founder and Medical Director of the Centre, Professor Dr. Nikos Zamboglou and a team of doctors. Dr. Zamboglou informed the Minister about the specialized treatments performed at the Center, which is contracted to the YESY, within the specialties of Radiation Oncology, Radiation Oncology, Pathological Oncology and Nuclear Medicine. Dr Zamboglou explained that the Centre serves both patients in Cyprus, who without this access to treatments would need to travel abroad, and patients from other countries, who travel to our island to receive treatment from the Centre.
The Minister was also informed about the various research projects in which the German Oncology Centre participates together with universities from many foreign countries (such as France, Germany, Austria, Greece, Switzerland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Italy, China, Canada, Canada, the United States of America and France), including Harvard University.
