Lifehouse is an integrated centre of excellence, offering everything a cancer patient needs in one place, including advanced onco-surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, clinical trials, research, education, complementary therapies and psychosocial support.
Our vision is to transform the treatment of cancer and bring hope to the lives of cancer patients, their carers and families by advancing the understanding, diagnosis, treatment, cure and prevention of the disease.
Lifehouse represents a unique model of care and funding in Australia: a not-for-profit, cancer-only hospital that treats public and private patients. We have no shareholders and income is reinvested for the benefit of our patients.
