GenesisCare, a UK-based independent cancer care provider, specialising in complex cancers, is opening a a new, state-of-the-art, comprehensive oncology and haematology centre in Leeds, West Yorkshire.
Set to open in early 2026, this pioneering centre will offer cutting-edge cancer care to insured and self-funding patients in the North of England and Scotland, who previously had to travel to GenesisCare in Oxford or London for such advanced treatments.
This new facility will also be the 15th and largest centre in its UK network, housing two of the world’s most advanced and sophisticated radiotherapy platforms, revolutionising treatment for patients with cancer.

Setting a new standard in adaptive radiotherapy in the UK, the centre will have the unique ability to personalise radiotherapy in real-time, using both MRI and CT imaging, offering patients treatment precisely tailored to their specific cancer.
This will establish GenesisCare in Leeds as one of a small group of cancer centres worldwide with the ability to provide adaptive radiotherapy for every patient who would benefit from this innovative approach.
Dr Eliot Sims, Chief Medical Officer at GenesisCare said: "Adaptive radiotherapy represents a transformative advancement in cancer treatment. By using the technology’s ability to provide live images of both the tumour and normal tissue, we can create a new treatment plan every day based on the patient’s anatomy."
Sims explained that this gives clinicians the confidence to deliver high-dose radiotherapy with exquisite precision, whilst minimising side effects, thereby improving patient outcomes. "This is truly personalised radiotherapy," he said.

As well as access to the very latest radiotherapy technology, GenesisCare patients will also have to access a wide range of other services without the need to travel far from home.
From the comfortable, relaxing outpatient and consulting department to the advanced imaging department (3T MRI, PET-CT, and CT) to the systemic therapy suite that will deliver chemotherapy, targeted therapies, and immunotherapy to patients with every type of cancer, every aspect of personalised advanced cancer care will be seamlessly integrated under one roof.
Complementing the clinical services will be GenesisCare’s signature approach to exercise, dietary advice and supportive care.
Patients being treated at the centre will be able to access a prescribed programme of exercise medicine as well as on-site holistic support services such as mindfulness, reflexology, and acupuncture. This reflects GenesisCare’s strong commitment to treating the whole patient, not just the cancer.
Justin Hely, GenesisCare’s CEO UK & Europe commented on the announcement: "The opening of our 15th and largest centre in Leeds marks a significant milestone in our mission to provide accessible, world-class cancer care. For patients in the North of England, this new facility will mean access to the latest advancements in both radiotherapy and systemic therapy right on their doorstep."
