I am a health professional

Ovarian Cancer Australia works closely with health professionals around Australia to ensure women diagnosed with ovarian cancer, their family and friends, are provided with relevant information and support.

Refer a Patient

Clinicians are encouraged to identify women who they believe will require more care and refer them to our team of ovarian cancer nurses and health professionals. This can be done at any point in their journey.

2021 Symposium

Ovarian Cancer Australia is bringing together leading Australian and international researchers, clinicians and industry representatives for a virtual independent ovarian cancer symposium for health professionals.

Psychosocial Research

Our research projects are integral to helping us focus on key issues and provide better outcomes for women diagnosed with ovarian cancer.
