Our Approach | HCA UK

Together we’re better

Our consultants adopt a multidisciplinary approach when considering the best treatment pathway for an individual, drawing upon the knowledge of clinical nurse specialists, clinical dietitians, pharmacists, radiologists, consultant oncologists and haematologists, surgeons, pathologistsand microbiologists in multidisciplinary teams (MDTs). The MDT reviews each patient’s case before recommending the most suitable course of treatment, so your patient benefits from the combined experience of a whole team of clinicians with expertise in specialty and sub-specialty areas.

Tailor-made treatment

Your patient will receive a personalised treatment plan based on their individual needs and underpinned by our rigorous clinical governance structures.

Where surgery is needed, our clinicians and clinical teams work together to ensure that patients receive a highly structured plan, from nutrition and pre-operative preparation through to post-operative rehabilitation. The Princess Grace Hospital is one of a few hospitals in the UK to offer patients with chronic conditions the chance to receive parenteral nutrition support at home.
