The Centre

Our vision is for a world-class Cancer and Wellness Centre dedicated to providing the very best in medical care and treatment; combined with global research programs for new treatments to help stop cancer from destroying the lives of so many people.

The Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre will build on the years of cancer care at the Austin Hospital that has been provided since 1882.

It will bring together the hospital’s extensive, existing, cancer services, and the research facilities of the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research, all under the one roof in a purpose-built facility.

“More than just treating cancer, it’s about providing care and treatment for the whole person, body, mind and spirit,”

Patron, Olivia Newton-John.

A special feature will be the Wellness Centre, offering a full range of complementary therapies to support people throughout their medical treatment; extending the wellness philosophy that will underpin the whole approach of the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre.

Cancer & Wellness Centre – Progress Update

The count-down is well and truly on as the construction team at the Olivia Newton-John Cancer & Wellness Centre (ONJCWC) prepare for the final leg of the first-stage opening due to wow us all in July.

The entire structure of the centre is now up and the majority of the work is all happening on the interior of the building as the finishing touches are completed.
