Consultants

Referral Expectations

By referring a patient to Auckland Radiation Oncology your patient will receive the best personalised treatment and care.

ARO consultants regularly participate in Multidisciplinary Meetings (MDMs). This means the radiation oncologists (R.O's) work closely with other specialists such as surgeons and medical oncologists to review specific cases and discuss treatment options so each patient’s care is personalised and aligned.

Patients are usually seen by an ARO consultant within a week of referral. Depending on consultant availability there are no waiting times for a simulation CT scan or treatment commencement once a treatment plan has been decided.

Patients: Video and learn about the patient treatment journey

Medical Professionals:  Referral information.

Fees and Charges Description

An indication of cost of treatment will be provided once the oncologist has developed a specific care plan for the patient.

There are three choices of payment:

  • Direct payment to ARO
  • Payment direct from an overseas agency
  • Private health insurance. If treatment is covered by your health insurance plan, before your treatment planning appointment, prior approval must be obtained from your health insurance organisation. The team at ARO are happy to assist you with this; please contact them on (09) 623 6046 or email them at 

You are welcome to contact ARO if you have any questions about treatment costs, insurance claims and payments.
