Integrative Cancer Care • London
Integrative cancer care is only helpful when it is safe, coordinated, and clinically appropriate. This page explains how we screen for interactions, manage timing considerations, document decisions, and keep you in control through informed consent.
“Complementary” does not automatically mean “safe”. Our approach is designed to reduce risk and confusion— especially when you are undergoing chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, immunotherapy, or targeted treatments.
For the overall model, start with the integrative cancer care overview. To see how safety principles shape your plan, read your personalised care plan.
Many patients are offered supplements or therapies online, through friends, or from multiple practitioners. In cancer care, this can create interaction risks or timing conflicts. We review what you’re using to identify: what is reasonable, what is uncertain, and what should be avoided or paused.
We review prescription medicines, over-the-counter products, supplements, herbs, and any IV therapies.
We consider allergy history, reactions, and health conditions that may make certain options unsuitable.
We assess timing considerations around chemotherapy cycles, radiotherapy schedules, surgery, and procedures.
For coordination principles, see working with your oncology team. For appointment flow, see what to expect.
You remain in control. Consent means you understand what is being suggested, why it is being suggested, what the potential benefits and uncertainties are, and what the alternatives include.
This connects directly to how your plan is built: your personalised care plan. For common pre-booking questions, see FAQs.
Integrative care is not a substitute for urgent medical assessment. If you experience severe or rapidly worsening symptoms, contact your oncology team or urgent medical services as appropriate.
Cancer treatment can affect immunity and physiology. Prompt assessment protects you and reduces complications.
If you’re unsure what the clinic process looks like, see what to expect.
Where appropriate and with your consent, we align supportive recommendations with your oncology plan to reduce confusion and avoid conflicts. This may include clarifying what you are using and flagging timing or interaction concerns.
If you want supportive care alongside oncology—without overwhelm—start with a consultation. We’ll review your treatment schedule, symptoms, medications/supplements, and priorities, then build a practical plan.
