Make a difference. Every day.

The Pulmonary Medicine unit is part of the Cardiac and Pulmonary Medicine division at Skåne University Hospital. The operations include both outpatient and inpatient care in Lund and Malmö.

At the Day Care Lung Clinic, highly specialized lung cancer treatments are provided, distributed across three different teams. Here, doctors, nurses, medical secretaries, social workers, and service staff work together. In our dynamic environment, you will often encounter complex and exciting patient journeys where you have great opportunities to make a difference for the patient. Our goal is always to base our care on the patients' needs, where care and treatment are tailored individually and characterized by professional interaction from the entire team. Due to an organizational change, the Day Care Lung Clinic will, starting this autumn, become part of the Oncology-Hematology and Radiation Physics division.

We are proud to be part of an accredited Comprehensive Cancer Centre (CCC). Skåne University Hospital Comprehensive Cancer Center (SUHCCC) is one of Europe's leading cancer centers, with competent staff and cutting-edge treatment methods. For you as an employee, this means opportunities for continuous education and development within cancer care, as well as opportunities to participate in and drive development work within the center.
