Our extensive offering also includes a large tertiary cancer service, including the newly developed ambulatory care, providing specialized cancer services to young people across the country.

University College Hospital, a pioneer in teenage cancer care since 1990, continues to grow in size, activity, and complexity, earning international recognition. The UCH Macmillan Cancer Centre, opened in April 2012, is dedicated to Teenagers and Young Adults (TYA) aged 13-24 years. This state-of-the-art facility offers various amenities, treatment pods, consulting rooms, a gymnasium, recreational areas, and more.
