"A Second Chance: My Journey to Recovery from Deadly Cancer Subtitle: A Heartfelt Tribute to the Incredible Team at the OnoCare Cancer Centre, Mount Elizabeth Hospital, Singapore "I am eternally grateful to the exceptional team at OnoCare Cancer Clinic, for saving my life. In particular, I want to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Jeevendra Kanagalingam, Dr. Chopra Akhi and Dr. Ivan Tham as well as their entire staff, for their unwavering dedication and expertise. I have labeled them the “Dream Team” because my dream of getting rid of cancer once and forever after a seven-year battle has come true due to their expert, unselfish treatments. When I was diagnosed with oropharyngeal cancer, I faced a daunting journey. However, the care I received from this incredible team has been nothing short of miraculous. Their compassion, skill, and innovative approach have given me a second chance at life. From the initial diagnosis to the completion of my treatment, I felt supported and cared for at every step. Dr. Jeeves's surgical expertise, Dr. Tham's pioneering work in proton beam therapy, and Dr. Chopra's personalized chemotherapy regimens were instrumental in my recovery. But it wasn't just the doctors who made a difference. The nurses, technicians, and support staff at OnoCare, Mount Elizabeth Hospital provided invaluable care and comfort throughout my treatment. Their kindness and professionalism were truly inspiring. I am incredibly fortunate to have been treated by such a remarkable team. Their dedication and skill have given me hope and a renewed sense of life. I will forever be grateful for their unwavering support. I highly recommend anybody facing this deadly disease to seek out the help of this dream team and you too will probably praise them at the conclusion of the treatment. Sincerely, B. M. B., 74-Year-Old Canadian, Oct 2024"

"OncoCare Mt Elizabeth, Novena, Singapore made a difficult time feel a little lighter. Dr Akhil Chopra is very approachable, amazingly responsive, extremely knowledgable, compassionate and encouraging and never rushed us. The nurses and front-desk staff are kind, responsive on whatsapp/phone and encouraging. The facilities are top notch and run efficiently with minimal wait time. We always felt heard and cared for. Thank you for the professionalism, empathy, and support—you truly made a difference for me and my family."

"Dr Wong Nan Soon is super professional & knowledgeable. He is calm, patient, and takes the time to explain things without any sign of that typical arrogance or cockiness one often gets from doctors. A true physician in my opinion. Dr Ben Chua isn’t my doctor, but he always comes across as highly energetic & optimistic, which is what cancer patients need when they are down & out. What many fail to realise is how critical bedside manner is, when patients are struck by dastardly cancer and are at a complete loss for what steps to take in terms of treatment. When the future seems bleak, getting treated by doctors who are brimming with compassion, and optimism, mean everything to a patient. Nurses are wonderful too, especially Amor, who is always humorous, sweet, and attentive. Clinic ambience is good as well, but I prefer the old setup, which was much larger in terms of floor space & the treatment areas."

"Oncocare Novena provides a very warm, safe and empathetic environment for my son’s chemo journey. His doctor, Dr Chopal is professional, experienced and friendly. The admin ladies, Mabeline, Jolene, Magdalene and gentlemen, Wallace together with the nurses ( Kim, Eunice, Reena, the lovely Filipino & Malay nurses ( so sorry, I didn’t manage to get your names 🙏🏻 ) are simply wonderful, warm & skillful. Thank you so much for accompanying us in this difficult and trying time."

"I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the team at OncoCare Medical for the excellent care and support throughout my treatment journey. The front-line staff have always been warm, polite, and friendly, making every visit a pleasant and reassuring experience. They are patient, professional, and always willing to assist with any queries or arrangements. I would also like to commend the nurses who have been assisting me during my immunotherapy sessions. They are attentive, caring, and highly professional. Their kindness and dedication have helped me feel comfortable and well cared for during each treatment. Thank you to the entire OncoCare team for your commitment to patient care and for consistently providing such a positive experience. I am truly grateful for the support and encouragement I have received from everyone at the clinic. Mr Boey"
