Description

Joseph and a large team examine Nigerian cancer patients' views on COVID-era teleoncology, in a study from twenty twenty-three. Fifteen outpatient clinics survey over one thousand patients in twenty twenty. About thirteen percent saw follow-ups converted to virtual visits. Treatment disruption and contact frequency are analyzed as factors.

Patients with canceled surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy convert far more often. Being seen less by doctors links fourteen-fold to virtual conversion. Most patients were women, and over a third were fifty-five or older. The pandemic reshaped cancer service delivery across the clinics. Teleoncology data collection in Nigeria gains importance.
