2023 Activity Report

These lines serve to present the Activity Report of the Valencian Institute of Oncology Foundation (IVO) for 2023. A report that compiles in detail the healthcare and scientific activity carried out throughout the year, and which includes the outstanding scientific publications, teaching activities and congresses held, among others.

These pages are a faithful reflection of the commitment and dedication of the excellent team of more than 600 professionals that make up this institution. I am proud to note that, as we approach half a century of history, founding values such as rigor, the pursuit of excellence and exquisite care for cancer patients and their families have transcended to become the best letter of introduction to this center. My sincere recognition and gratitude to all the members of the institution whose professionalism and daily dedication make this possible.

For yet another year, the IVO has put all its efforts and resources at the service of society in the arduous task of fighting cancer. And with this mission, more than 31,000 Valencian patients have been attended. A responsibility inspired, moreover, by the commitment acquired year after year of wanting to cure and take better care every day. And in this task, Valencian society continues to be our main supporter, as can be seen in the more than 7,000 new patients who have placed their trust in this institution at such difficult times as when facing a cancer diagnosis. This trust is what drives us to continue improving every.

In this balance the IVO has received in 2023 important awards that highlight its healthcare model. In this sense, we have been proud to receive the Levante-EMV 2023 Award in the category of Health. A distinction for the trajectory of continuous commitment to research, excellence, scientific and technological advances in the service of cancer patients, and which is dedicated to the Valencian society. Undoubtedly an impulse to continue working to offer the best possible medical and human care, with the patient and the family always at the center of our mission.
Likewise, for the fourth consecutive year, this center has been distinguished with the World’s Best Specialized Hospitals 2024, a mention that places it among the 100 best oncology hospitals in the world.
