2027 Gynaecology Oncology Fellow

Gynaecology Oncology at Monash Health 

Gynaecological cancer care at Monash Health is provided by a dedicated group of gynaecological oncologists through the Monash Cancer Centre at Moorabbin Hospital in East Bentleigh. We support the largest population catchment in Victoria - spanning east to the Gippsland, as well as the Frankston catchment and surrounding Ballarat populations.  

We work closely with other oncology specialties to provide first-class care to women in our care and have affiliations with Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre through our radiation oncology unit. Furthermore, surgical collaboration occurs across all Monash campuses, but particularly Dandenong and Casey hospitals, which allows for patients to access the expertise of multiple surgical subspecialties and more recently, robotic surgery as well.  

Our unit is also involved with multiple research studies and trials on the local and international stage. These academic pursuits along with ties to the Medical School at Monash University provides an intersection of opportunities for learning at all levels including laboratory science investigation and research and early phase clinical trials.
