This area is dedicated to outpatient care, where diagnostic and/or therapeutic procedures are performed under the supervision and monitoring of our professionals during a short hospital stay. We provide care to both oncology and onco-hematology patients who can undergo chemotherapy treatments on an outpatient basis, as well as non-oncology patients who require treatments or procedures that, due to their level of complexity, require nursing care and medical supervision during the procedure, For example, transfusion of blood products, administration of scheduled medication (iron, calcium fixers, gamma globulins), recovery after lumbar blocks, endoscopies, and low-complexity post-operative care.

The administrative management of the service has a scheduled agenda to facilitate admission and reduce waiting times.

You can schedule your appointment as follows:

Remember that if you are a cancer patient and your oncologist has requested laboratory tests prior to chemotherapy infusion, you can have them done at our laboratory 24/48 hours in advance without an appointment, or if you prefer to have them done on the same day, you can have them done 2 hours in advance.
