How to refer a patient

Thank you

Compass Cancer Specialists (CCS) is built on the founding principles of compassion, integrity, excellence and evidence-based practice. Thank you for trusting us with your referral as we guide your patient through their journey with humility and empathy.

Open communication is the foundation for timely correspondence with our patients, their families, and colleagues.

If you require further guidance on referring, please get in touch with Dr. Hurwitz or Dr. Fernando. They are always happy to help.

What do we treat

We treat all solid organ cancers and have special interests, including:

  • Breast Cancer

  • Genitourinary Cancers

    • Bladder

    • Prostate

    • Kidney

    • Testicular

  • Colorectal Cancer

  • Upper Gastrointestinal Cancers

  • Skin Cancers (Melanoma and Non Melanoma)

  • Lung

  • Other cancers (thyroid, neuroendocrine)

Our mantra is simple: If your patient’s cancer would benefit from treatment in a trial or in a high-volume specialised centre (e.g., sarcoma), we will make an appropriate referral to the required specialist.
