As a cluster, we see the majority of public patients with blood cancer in Singapore, both pediatrics as well as adults. As such, we are constantly thinking of ways to improve our services in order to bring greater value to our patients throughout the care continuum. The SingHealth Duke-NUS Blood Cancer Centre (SDBCC) brings together a multidisciplinary team with the singular purpose of bringing the best care to our patients.

Through adopting evidence-based medicine, streamlining the complex cancer patient journey, providing access to high quality clinical trials and education, we hope to transform patient experience and significantly improve treatment outcomes. Our SDBCC has the potential to be a catalyst for blood cancer research and education for both Singapore and the world.
