According to data of World Cancer Report oncology professionals fail to determine psychosocial needs of the cancer
patients, and their families. Health professionals working in oncology services, and outpatient clinics who get close
contact with cancer patients should have a certain perspective on this issue. All physicians who will work in this field
should use psychosocial support systems in the diagnosis, and treatment process of the cancer patients, and their
relatives. This review article aims to raise awareness, and provide guidance in satisfying the need for psychological
treatment of cancer patients, oncologists, and psychiatrists who provide healthcare services to cancer patients.
Key words: Psychiatry, oncology, psycho-oncology, support
