We are directly linked with the Thoracic Surgical Oncology Team at the Toronto East General Hospital providing excellence in surgical care of chest malignancies.  In addition there is a multi-institutional thoracic oncology tumor board involving Scarborough General Hospital, Toronto East General Hospital and the Odette Cancer Centre.

Our collaboration with the Toronto East General Hospital has resulted in a "Time to Treat" initiative whereby lung cancer patients can be evaluated rapidly through diagnostic tests and imaging tests, and referred to appropriate specialists in a timely fashion.
