London Regional Cancer Program

`Medical Genetics Program of Southwestern Ontario`

`WE ARE ON THE MOVE!`

The Medical Genetics Program at London Health Sciences Centre (LHSC) and London Regional Cancer Program (LRCP) will be moving to the level five, zone B (new north tower) at Victoria Hospital (located at the corner of Commissioners and Baseline Road) as of May 2011.

If you have an appointment scheduled after May 1, 2011, you will need to come to our new location.

We will continue to provide the same type and quality of patient care in our new space. You will also maintain the same physician you currently are appointed to.

In the event that the date and/or time of your appointment changes you will be contacted by our office.

We are very excited about the transition to our new purpose-built space at Victoria Hospital. The new space is bright, modern and built with patient flow in mind.

We appreciate your patience during this time. Here is a map highlighting our new location.

Cancer Genetics Program

The Cancer Genetics Program of Southwestern Ontario offers genetic counselling and testing for families at risk for inherited forms of breast, ovarian or colon cancer. Most of these cancers occur randomly, however, a small number of cases (5 -10%) are linked to a strong family history of cancer. These cancers may be the result of identifiable gene mutations.

The following services are available to individuals and families:

Genetic counselling
Testing
Assessment
Education
Surveillance

A doctor can refer people with or without cancer who are considered to be at-risk for an inherited cancer to the Cancer Genetics Clinic at 519-685-8727. Office hours are 8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m., Monday to Friday.
