Patients with sarcoma often require a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy.

Members of our inter-professional team are recognized leaders in their fields in the diagnosis and treatment of sarcoma, with access to cutting-edge technologies, novel therapies, advanced surgical and reconstructive techniques for bone and soft tissue sarcomas and clinical trials.

Your treatment team of medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists and surgical oncologists work together with nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, social workers, dietitians and other allied health professionals to develop a plan of care that is personalized to provide the best patient-centered care to every patient.

Physical, psychosocial, spiritual and cultural needs will be addressed throughout a patient’s journey from screening, diagnosis and treatment to follow-up, survivorship and end-of-life phases of care. We help our patients navigate support services such as financial help and spiritual support, as well as resources for families, adolescents and young adults.
