They aim to supply the most effective possible outcome for cancer patients, whether that's cure, or palliation and prolongation of excellent quality life. They provide counselling for patients and their families.

Diagnosing cancers, discussing treatment options with patients and supervising drug treatment and therapies, supporting patients and overseeing their care, including their lives after treatment are a part of their roles.

Medical oncologists treat patients whose cancer has potentially been cured by surgery except for which further therapy improves their outlook.

Medical oncologists treat conditions such as colorectal cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, urological cancers, leukaemia, and melanoma. Common procedures include chemotherapy, endocrine therapy and biological therapies like antibodies, small molecules and immunotherapy.
