London • Integrative Oncology Support
A whole-person model that works alongside your oncology care—combining evidence-informed supportive therapies with medical oversight to help you feel steadier, stronger, and more in control during treatment and recovery.
Complementary support is not a replacement for oncology treatment. We coordinate safely with your NHS/private team.
Integrative cancer care is supportive medical care that sits alongside conventional oncology. The goal is to improve quality of life, reduce avoidable treatment burden, and support recovery by addressing your whole health picture—symptoms, nutrition, sleep, emotional wellbeing, resilience, and day-to-day function.
In practice, that means you get a structured plan that is personalised to your diagnosis, treatment pathway, current medications/supplements, risk profile, and preferences—then reviewed and adjusted as your situation changes.
We start with your clinical context and your priorities, then choose supportive therapies that fit safely. See how your plan is built.
We can liaise with your oncology team and align timing around chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, or immunotherapy. How we work with oncologists.
Your treatment journey is directed by Dr. Saskia H. Kloppenburg Vieth, a Consultant in General Internal Medicine and a leading authority in integrative oncology. As the founder of Integrated Medicine in London and a senior physician at the Royal London Hospital for Integrated Medicine (RLHIM)—part of the University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust—she brings a rare level of medical seniority to the world of complementary care.
This level of leadership is vital for patients navigating the complexities of advanced cancer care. Dr. Saskia possesses the specialized expertise to safely bridge the gap between conventional oncology and evidence-based complementary therapies, ensuring your path to wellness is as safe as it is comprehensive.
Dr. Saskia does not just practice integrative medicine; she helps define it. As the head of the RLHIM Academic Unit and Co-Director of Academics, her clinical decisions are informed by the latest global research.
People usually come to us with a mix of treatment side-effects, fatigue, sleep disruption, appetite changes, anxiety, low resilience, or uncertainty about supplements and interactions. We prioritise safety and practicality: what can realistically help you feel better—and what fits your oncology pathway.
Symptoms, treatment tolerance, recovery goals, emotional wellbeing, and what you want to protect (work, family, independence).
Medications, supplements, liver/kidney considerations, clotting risk, immunotherapy considerations, and timing around treatment.
Clear steps, monitoring points, and follow-ups that adapt to your oncology schedule.
Your plan may include one or more of the therapies below—selected for your context, goals, and safety profile. Where evidence is mixed or evolving, we’ll be explicit about uncertainty and focus on risk-aware decision-making.
Often considered for supportive quality-of-life goals in carefully selected contexts.
Used in some supportive plans where resilience and recovery goals are relevant.
Clinician-led infusions to support hydration, nutrients, and recovery—timed appropriately.
Offered as part of integrative support, with careful assessment of suitability and safety.
Food-first guidance and symptom-aware strategies aligned with your oncology pathway.
Offered for selected supportive goals and patient preference, within a medically supervised plan.
Tools for stress regulation, sleep support, coping, and building day-to-day steadiness.
Most people begin with a first consultation where we map your treatment pathway, clarify what support you need, and assess suitability for integrative therapies. If you’re currently in active treatment, we can plan around cycles and coordinate with your oncology team when appropriate.
