Abstract
Cancer care has evolved to encompass emotional well-being, yet a crucial gap exists in Pakistan's hospitals: the absence of Psycho-Oncology Multidisciplinary Tumour Boards. By integrating psycho-oncologists, psychologists, and social workers into tumor boards, we aim to address the emotional and psychological dimensions of cancer alongside medical treatments. This holistic approach seeks to improve treatment adherence, quality of life, and overall patient outcomes. The initiative also aims to destigmatize mental health discussions and provide comprehensive support, recognizing the socioeconomic challenges associated with cancer diagnoses in Pakistan. Establishing these boards is positioned as a strategic investment in patient-centered and comprehensive cancer care.
