Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question? Our support team is here to guide you through each step of your treatment journey with personal care and attention.
Can The London Clinic review my existing cancer scans and reports before I travel from abroad?

Yes. The London Clinic's international patient team can arrange for your existing diagnostic reports, biopsy results, and imaging to be reviewed by a specialist consultant before you travel. This pre-travel review helps confirm whether your diagnosis is accurate, whether any further tests are needed on arrival, and which treatment options are most appropriate for your case.

Submitting your reports in advance also allows a personalised cost estimate and treatment plan to be prepared so you arrive in London with full clinical clarity and no unnecessary delays.

How do I contact the international patient support team for cancer treatment at The London Clinic?

Cancer treatment appointments, second opinions, and treatment coordination are managed through the My 1Health International Patient Care team, available 24/7 to assist patients before, during, and after travel.

You can reach the team through:

The team arranges in-person consultations, online video appointments, second medical opinions, scan review before travel, written cost estimates, and full treatment coordination with your oncologist or haematologist at The London Clinic.

How long will I need to stay in London for cancer treatment at The London Clinic?

The length of your stay depends entirely on your cancer type, treatment plan, and recovery requirements. Most international cancer patients stay in London for the duration of active treatment and are discharged once their clinical team confirms it is safe to fly.

  • Cancer diagnostics: 2 to 5 days for full workup, imaging, and specialist review
  • Robotic surgery: 3 to 7 days in hospital followed by 1 to 2 weeks of local recovery
  • Radiotherapy: 3 -6 weeks of daily outpatient sessions
  • Chemotherapy: Multiple cycles scheduled over weeks or months, with gaps between sessions
  • Bone marrow transplant: 4 to 6 weeks inpatient, with remote follow-up after discharge

Your treatment itinerary is prepared before you leave home, so you know your schedule in advance.

How much does private cancer treatment cost at The London Clinic in London?

Cancer treatment costs at The London Clinic depend on the type of cancer, the treatment pathway, and the number of consultations and procedures required. Costs are not fixed by a single price list; a personalised treatment plan with itemised cost estimates is prepared for each patient before travel.

The international patient team provides:

  • Written cost estimates before you commit to travelling
  • Guidance on insurance coverage and embassy sponsorship arrangements
  • Transparent pricing that covers consultations, procedures, and diagnostic testing

Requesting a cost estimate carries no obligation and is strongly encouraged before booking travel.

Is CAR-T cell therapy available at The London Clinic for international patients?

Yes. The London Clinic is one of the few private hospitals in the UK offering CAR-T cell therapy for patients with large B-cell lymphoma who have not responded to prior lines of treatment. The treatment is supported by the hospital's JACIE accredited haematology and bone marrow infrastructure, which is the first of its kind in the UK's independent hospital sector.

International patients can request a pre-travel clinical assessment through the international patient team before committing to travel.

What happens to my cancer care after I return home from The London Clinic?

Post-treatment follow-up is managed through The London Clinic's international patient team and your dedicated coordinator. After you return home, remote consultations are available with your treating consultant via secure video call, and your full medical records, test results, and treatment reports are accessible through a digital patient portal.

If you need further treatment cycles, a return visit is coordinated by the same team that managed your first trip, so the process is already familiar. If complications arise after you leave, your coordinator is your direct point of contact and can arrange emergency liaison with The London Clinic's clinical team on your behalf.

What types of cancer does The London Clinic treat for international patients?

The London Clinic treats all major cancer types within its dedicated Duchess of Devonshire Wing, including prostate, breast, colorectal, lung, gynaecological, bladder, kidney, skin, blood, and head and neck cancers, as well as haematological malignancies such as leukaemia, lymphoma, and myeloma.
