Our Patients

OUT PATIENTS

At Omega Hospital, we offer a range of outpatient services. Our outpatient services include consultation with specialists, diagnostic services, health checkups and outpatient treatment facilities.

Our outpatient services can be accessed throughout the day, but patients are requested to make appointments to ensure prompt access to the facilities, clinicians and treatments.

WHAT IS CANCER SCREENING?

Cancer screening is looking for cancer before a person has any symptoms. There are different kinds of screening tests.

DOES SCREENING HELP PEOPLE LIVE LONGER?
  • Finding some cancers at an early stage (before symptoms appear) may help decrease the chance of dying from those cancers.
  • Screening studies are done to see whether deaths from cancer decrease when people are screened.
  • Certain factors may cause survival times to look like they are getting better when they are not.

Screening tests usually do not diagnose cancer. If a screening test result is abnormal, more tests may be done to check for cancer.
