Treatment types, what to plan for and questions to ask before you travel for breast cancer care.
Draft: awaiting clinical review. A named clinician has not checked this page yet. Use it for general information only.
What it is
Breast cancer treatment can include surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, hormone treatment and targeted medicines. Most patients need more than one type.
Before you decide
A cancer specialist plans treatment from your scans and biopsy results. Ask your doctor in Kenya which parts of the treatment you can have at home. Some patients travel for one part only, then continue in Kenya.
What to expect
- The hospital reviews your biopsy report and scans.
- A team of specialists suggests a plan.
- You travel for tests, surgery or the first cycles of treatment.
- You may need to stay for several weeks, or to travel more than once.
Costs
Cancer treatment often lasts many months. Ask for the cost of the full plan, not only the first step. Ask what each extra cycle costs.
Questions to ask the hospital
- What is the full treatment plan, and how long does it take?
- Which parts can I have in Kenya?
- What does the quote include, and what is extra?
- How do you share results with my doctor in Kenya?
