Melanoma Institute Australia (MIA) facilitates melanoma treatment and care through affiliated clinics at the Poche Centre in Wollstonecraft, Sydney. MIA has multiple clinics for melanoma patients, covering the specialities of surgery, medical oncology, radiation oncology, pathology and dermatology.
Multidisciplinary cancer care is essential to optimal melanoma and skin cancer care. MIA operates the largest skin cancer multidisciplinary team meeting (MDT) in Australia. If further discussion regarding the direction of patient care is necessary after review by an MIA specialist, the referral will be discussed at the MDT.
