Head and Neck Registrar | The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust

Overview The Head and Neck and Thyroid Units provide a high quality and accessible cancer service predominantly for the people of South London although referrals are also received from across England and abroad - for these particular tumour sites. The Units have a long and distinguished history, particularly in the multidisciplinary approach to cancer care. In providing this service we have forged excellent links with the St George’s Hospital who partner us in this. The population we serve at The Royal Marsden exceeds 2 million and draws from a number of peripheral hospitals, some which hold joint consultant contracts with The Royal Marsden, all of which are members of The Royal Marsden multidisciplinary team (MDT). This helps to facilitate efficient patient pathways from diagnosis to treatment across the network.
