My husband had liver cancer at an initial stage and was getting treatment from Dr. Adem Uçar at the Liv Clinic. Unfortunately, his cancer was progressing rapidly, and we were short of time. However, we were delighted with the hospital as it had complete facilities for not only a patient but also its attendants. The oncology department had a panel of experienced oncologists who performed a surgery where they removed the cancerous portion of the liver. After that, he prescribed microsphere brachytherapy through Yttrium-90, a new advancement. This therapy played a vital role in his battle against cancer; he has fully recovered from it.
