RIGHT MEDICAL AND ONCO CARE CENTRE
Introduction

In view of the fact that there were very few facilities to cater for the many patients receiving cancer therapy in Myanmar, Right Healthcare incorporated a new service for medical oncology treatment- Right Medical & Onco Care Centre. Not only did we create a conducive environment where the patients receiving treatment would feel comfortable similar to their natural setting at home, we also ensured that reliable and appropriate support services such as laboratory tests and special infusion pumps to administer medication, were provided to ensure the best possible treatment for the patients, to a standard comparable to overseas medical oncology centres.
