Brazil's second top-ranked oncology hospital with strong radiotherapy and research programmes.
Hospital Sírio-Libanês in São Paulo is Brazil's second top-ranked oncology hospital, placed nineteenth in the Newsweek/Statista World's Best Specialized Hospitals list for oncology. It runs an oncology centre with radiotherapy and proton therapy planning, a precision medicine programme and a research institute, and its clinicians include Artur Katz and Paulo Hoff, both linked in OnCo. It sits alongside Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein and BP, A Beneficência Portuguesa de São Paulo, in the group of private Brazilian centres that carry much of the country's cancer trial activity, under the oversight of ANVISA. How much of its work reaches Brazil's public system is the fair question to ask. Its radiotherapy and precision oncology programmes are the starting points.
