Dr. Lazaridou is Chief of Inpatient Care at the Bank of Cyprus Oncology Centre. She has taught junior internal medicine residents and 5th and 6th year medical students at the University of Crete Medical School. She is interested in integrating Palliative Care into the care of her patients as early as possible in their journeys through their illness. She strongly believes that further training in palliative care is essential to mentoring junior doctors and nurses, as well as other staff members. Her goal is to organize the first palliative care multidisciplinary team at the Bank of Cyprus Oncology Center and serve the growing population of elderly in Cyprus, as well as relieve suffering from other chronic illness.
