Palliative Medicine

Your Trusted Palliative Medicine Specialists - Providing Specialised Care for the Seriously Ill

Palliative medicine is the specialised care of people living with a serious or life-threatening illness, focusing on alleviating their pain and other symptoms, and addressing the associated stresses. The overarching goal is to provide comfort, care and support to patients as well as their families, ultimately improving their overall quality of life. Palliative care services are open to all patients facing serious illness, regardless of their age, stage of their illnesses and treatments, or whether they are terminally ill. Offered in conjunction with their other treatments, it is a holistic approach that includes not only symptom and pain management but also psychological, social and spiritual support.

Our dedicated palliative care team, led by experienced palliative medicine specialists, collaborate with the patient’s primary healthcare providers, as well as specialists from other subspecialties. Together, they coordinate patient’s care and treatment, while also ensuring that their preferences and values are respected, giving them greater control over their care. If you think you or a loved one with a serious or life-threatening illness may benefit from palliative care, schedule an appointment with our palliative care team today to discuss personalised care options and address concerns you may have.
