Patients share their Stories

Cancer Patients share their Stories
Every cancer diagnosis is unique, just like every patient. But despite all the differences, we are united by stories of hope and strength on the path to treatment. They show that no one has to walk this path alone.
In UKE Life - the magazine from the UKE - we tell the stories of patients together with their caregivers and families at our tumor center.

Patient Involvement
Patients are at the heart of everything we do at the tumor center. In addition to the Patient Advisory Board, which provides strategic advice to UCC Hamburg on our further development, we are committed to training interested patients and their relatives to become patient ambassadors. ONCOlleg enables them to participate in research projects, committee work, and applications from the patient's perspective.
