The Breast Unit is the largest clinical unit at The Royal Marsden, delivering the full range of diagnostic and treatment services at the Chelsea and Sutton sites and an oncology service at Kingston Hospital. Referrals are received to the unit in a variety of ways including directly from GPs through our Rapid Diagnostic and Assessment Centres (RDAC), from local screening services and from other centres and hospitals requesting second opinions and transfers of care. The Breast Unit aims to deliver the latest high-quality treatment for all stages of breast cancer, and to be at the forefront of international research into the development of new treatments.Although the Breast Unit works across both sites largely independently, it does so according to a standardised operational policy and agreed clinical guidelines., The Royal Marsden is a world leader in cancer research, treatment and education. Together with our academic partner, The Institute of Cancer Research (ICR), we are the largest comprehensive cancer centre in Europe and the only National Institute of Health Research (NIHR) Biomedical Research Centre specialising in cancer in the UK. Our mission is to continue to make a national and international contribution to cancer research and treatment, so that more people are cured and quality of life is improved for those with cancer. The Royal Marsden therefore plays an important role in championing change and improvement in cancer care through research and innovation, education and leading-edge treatment. The Trust's annual budget is £360 million and we employ over 3,500 staff, including 335 medical staff, across two sites located in Chelsea and Sutton (Surrey). Over 50,000 patients attend The Royal Marsden each year. We provide community services across the Borough of Sutton. We have a Chemotherapy Medical Daycare Unit at Kingston Hospital. We have a reputation for delivering high quality performance. We were ranked joint first in the CQC national inpatient survey results, above average in national cancer patient experience survey and ranked first amongst teaching hospitals in the UK for our staff survey results.
