Integrative Cancer Care

At Marsden Centre we believe in the importance of integrating non-conventional treatments with established evidence for safety and efficacy alongside conventional treatments to improve patient outcomes.  While more evidence is needed to validate and support non-conventional treatments in cancer, many clinical trials have been done showing positive improvement in treatment outcomes including:

  • reduced adverse reactions
  • better quality of life (improved energy, reduced gastrointestinal side effects, reduced peripheral neuropathy, less myelosuppression, etc.)
  • improved survival and reduced rates of recurrence

We have a complete team of providers to support comprehensive integrative cancer care.  Our provider team consists of naturopathic doctors, nurse practitioners, traditional chinese medicine provider and acupuncturists.  Naturopathic doctors at Marsden Centre are registered naturopathic doctors with additional training in integrative cancer care.  Our naturopathic clinic fellows and associates are graduates of the naturopathic cancer care residency program supervised by Dr. Eric Marsden ND, Clinic Director . Our other health care professionals, such as our Registered Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner and Registered Acupuncturist, also have advanced training in integrative cancer care.

We believe that excellence is an ongoing process that involves constantly evaluating and improving both clinic procedures along with patient care. Marsden Centre has a robust quality assurance program.  If you would like to review an example of one of our quality assurance programs (adverse reaction and complication review) click here.

One of the greatest honours we have at our centre is receiving referrals from other health care professionals.  For more information on how to make a referral to our centre click here.
