Scheduling an Appointment with an Oncologist: Preparing for Your Specialist Consultation

To ensure your first specialist consultation is as efficient as possible and to help our clinical oncologists and multidisciplinary team conduct an accurate assessment, we recommend that you prepare the following medical records based on your specific situation when scheduling your appointment:

  • Your most recent biopsy report
  • Recent medical imaging CDs and reports (e.g., PET-CT, MRI, or CT scans)
  • Previous blood test results or tumor marker reports
  • List of medications you are allergic to
  • Family history of genetic conditions
  • Referral letters and medical summaries from other specialists or your primary care physician (if applicable)

Frequently Asked Questions and Consultation Guidelines

What are the benefits of seeking a second opinion?
With cancer treatment options evolving rapidly, seeking a second medical opinion is a common practice in the medical field. Experienced Hong Kong oncologists can review your pathology reports, explore the latest targeted therapies, immunotherapies, clinical trials, or more suitable comprehensive treatment options, helping you make major medical decisions with greater confidence.
What is the division of responsibilities between medical oncologists and surgical specialists?
Within Hong Kong’s healthcare system, oncologists are primarily responsible for planning and prescribing systemic treatments (such as chemotherapy and targeted therapy) and radiation therapy. If your condition requires surgical removal of the tumor, you will need to consult with our surgeons (such as breast surgeons or colorectal surgeons) to jointly develop a surgical plan and post-operative treatment regimen.
Do I need a referral letter from another doctor to see a specialist at OncoCare Cancer Centres?
Generally, you can contact us directly to schedule an appointment with a specialist; a referral letter is not strictly required. However, having a complete referral letter and medical summary will greatly assist our medical team in accurately understanding your medical history.
