A cancer diagnosis can affect many aspects of a person’s life.

As Dr Wong Siew Wei shares, it can shape daily routines, emotional well-being, and relationships, often in ways that extend far beyond the condition itself.

This is what makes medical oncology a deeply humbling field. Care goes beyond treatment alone, involving an understanding of each person’s experience and the challenges they may face along the way.

At Parkway Cancer Centre, this approach to care is reflected in how doctors work closely with patients, supporting them not just medically, but through the different aspects of their journey.

In supporting these different aspects, doctors are able to make a meaningful difference, not only in managing the condition, but also in helping people continue to live with purpose and quality of life.

As cancer care continues to evolve, advances in treatment are creating more opportunities to improve outcomes and support patients more meaningfully.

Caregiving rarely looks dramatic.
It often means staying present and carrying on through long days and unfamiliar places.

For Mr. Iqbal, being present for his wife during her cancer treatment meant navigating exhaustion, distance from home, and moments of quiet weight. Along the way, he learned that strength did not always mean pushing through alone. Sometimes, it meant allowing support, accepting kindness, and recognising that vulnerability can be part of care.

His experience reminds us that caregiving is not only about endurance. It is also about connection, compassion, and the people who notice when the weight becomes heavy.

Cancer care often prioritises what can be measured and treated.
But some experiences are harder to quantify.

Intimacy and sexuality are recognised as part of quality of life, yet they are frequently overlooked in care conversations. When these topics remain unspoken, patients and partners may quietly carry questions, worries, or changes they do not know how to raise.

In these moments, communication matters. Not just as a way to find solutions, but as a form of care.

Talking openly can help ease uncertainty, strengthen understanding, and support connection in ways that go beyond treatment alone.

New Ways of Classifying Colorectal Cancer

Colorectal cancer treatment is becoming more personalised. Through genomic profiling, doctors can analyse a tumour’s genetic makeup to better understand disease behaviour and tailor treatment more effectively.

This approach is helping to advance earlier detection, targeted therapies, and improved outcomes.

Find out how genomic profiling is shaping colorectal cancer care:
