Today, together with its academic partner, The Institute of Cancer Research (ICR), it is the largest and most comprehensive cancer centre in Europe, treating over 50,000 NHS and private patients every year. It is a centre of excellence with an international reputation for ground-breaking research and pioneering the very latest in cancer treatments and technologies, as well as specialising in cancer diagnosis and education.
The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust has two hospitals: one in Chelsea, London, and another in Sutton, Surrey. It also has a Chemotherapy Medical Daycare Unit at Kingston Hospital.
