Private Cancer Treatments at Cleveland Clinic London in UK

In many cases, yes. This hospital specifically treats complex cases that other institutions decline. Capabilities not widely available at other UK private hospitals include: ALPPS hepatectomy for central liver tumours where standard resection is not possible; HIPEC for peritoneal cancer spread; vascular resection for locally advanced pancreatic cancer; pelvic exenteration for advanced or recurrent pelvic cancers; complex oesophageal reconstruction using tissue from other parts of the body. If you have been told surgery is not possible, submitting your scans to the international patient team is the fastest route to a second surgical opinion.

Yes. You do not need to travel before the specialist team reviews your case. The international patient team forwards your MRI, CT, PET-CT, pathology reports, biopsy results, and operative notes to the relevant surgical oncologist. A written treatment plan and surgical recommendation are provided before you book any travel. For urgent cases, new patients are seen within 2 business days and surgery can be scheduled within days of the first appointment.

Currently, surgical oncology is delivered here. For chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and medical oncology, patients are coordinated with The London Clinic, 4 miles away, with all logistics managed as one pathway. An 81,000 sq ft dedicated cancer centre at 40 Grosvenor Place, next to the existing hospital, is under construction and expected to open by end of 2027. It will deliver immunotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapies, haematology, and radiotherapy under one roof.

The international patient team coordinates all cancer surgery appointments, scan reviews, cost estimates, and travel logistics for patients outside the UK.

Available 24/7 for video consultations, second opinions, report forwarding, and full treatment coordination.

Length of stay depends on the cancer type and procedure. As a guide: minimally invasive robotic cancer surgery 2 to 5 nights; major abdominal cancer surgery (liver resection, Whipple's) 7 to 14 nights; HIPEC for peritoneal cancer 10 to 14 nights, one of the most physically demanding recoveries; lung cancer surgery 3 to 7 nights; endocrine cancer surgery (thyroid, adrenal) 1 to 3 nights. Most patients remain in London 1 to 2 weeks after discharge before flying home. The international patient team arranges accommodation near the hospital at no cost to you, with options to suit different budgets, including a room for a companion or caregiver. Remote oncology follow-up is coordinated before you leave.

The cost depends on tumour type, stage, surgical complexity, and length of stay; a written itemised estimate is provided after the surgical oncology team reviews your scans. As a guide: complex HPB cancer surgery (liver resection, Whipple's, HIPEC) sits in the highest cost range given theatre time and ICU requirements; robotic cancer surgery (prostatectomy, colectomy, nephrectomy) has a shorter hospital stay than open surgery which affects overall cost; endocrine cancer surgery (thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal) is often day-case or 1 night. International health insurance, embassy-sponsored patients, and self-pay are all accepted. If treatment requires surgery here and radiotherapy or chemotherapy at The London Clinic, the international patient team coordinates the full pathway and cost estimate across both sites.

An 81,000 sq ft dedicated cancer centre at 40 Grosvenor Place in Belgravia is under construction, next to the existing hospital, with completion targeted for end of 2027. It will deliver surgical oncology, medical oncology, haematology, immunotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapies, and radiotherapy tailored to each patient. Consultants will collaborate with Cleveland Clinic's cancer programmes in the US and Abu Dhabi, bringing precision medicine and clinical trial access to patients in the UK.
