What We Do

The Provincial Pediatric Oncology AfterCare Program is a project of the Pediatric Oncology Group of Ontario (POGO). At the POGO Pediatric Cancer AfterCare Clinic at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, we can help you to stay healthy and to handle problems that may follow your cancer treatment. As one of seven POGO Pediatric AfterCare Clinics in the province, we are dedicated to monitoring and managing possible late effects of pediatric cancer. You may be able to take part in the clinic if you:

  • Had cancer as a child
  • Are at least 18 years old
  • Finished cancer treatment 5 or more years ago​​

Preparing for your Transfer to the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre


Transitioning from pediatric to adult cancer care is a big step and can ​​feel very overpowering for some. Your team at SickKids and the Adolescent and Young Adult program at Princess Margaret are available to support you to ease some discomfort you may feel during this time.
