About the clinic

German Medical Institute (GMI) assesses and treats stage 2 stomach cancer in Limassol, Cyprus. An online oncologist consultation may cost around $300. A weekly gastrointestinal oncology board reviews cases, supported by Cyprus’s first PET/CT scanner.

Staging and diagnostic tests

Tests help define the tumour’s location, depth, spread, and biological features. The team can use:

Online oncologist consultation: A remote consultation is available for around $300.
Gastroscopy with biopsy: High-definition endoscopy uses propofol sedation and Olympus scopes. NBI, RDI, and TXI imaging help assess stomach lesions. Patients recover within minutes and receive a detailed image report.
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS): An Olympus radial EUS assesses how deeply a tumour has grown and checks nearby lymph nodes.
CT, MRI, and PET/CT: Imaging supports staging and checks for distant spread. GMI has two CT scanners, two MRI scanners, and Cyprus’s first PET/CT scanner.
Histopathology and molecular biomarker testing: Tissue analysis identifies tumour features and markers that can guide treatment choices.

Treatment options for stage 2 stomach cancer

The weekly gastrointestinal oncology board brings specialists together to plan individual treatment. Options listed by GMI include surgery, drug therapy, and radiation.

Gastrectomy with lymph node dissection: Surgeons may remove part or all of the stomach and nearby lymph nodes. Laparoscopic keyhole surgery uses 3D and 4K imaging. The hybrid operating theatre supports real-time imaging. Indocyanine green (ICG) can guide sentinel lymph node mapping. Robotic surgery is listed as available soon.
Perioperative chemotherapy: Systemic anticancer treatment may be planned around surgery. The oncology team tailors regimens to tumour biology and stage. Dedicated infusion suites are available.
Immunotherapy and targeted therapy: Molecular profiling can help match treatment to tumour markers. GMI also lists access to clinical trials.
External beam radiotherapy and HDR brachytherapy: Radiation options include image-guided treatment using CT, MRI, or ultrasound. HDR brachytherapy uses an Iridium-192 source and personalised planning by medical physicists.

Associate Professor Athanasios Petrou, MD, PhD, is a surgical oncologist focused on upper gastrointestinal cancers, including gastric cancer. He completed surgical oncology training at The Royal Marsden and a fellowship at the University of Oxford’s Churchill Hospital. GMI holds ISO 9001, ISO 45001, ISO 22000, and CHKS accreditations. Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss the available assessment and treatment options.

I want to sincerely thank Dr. Andreas Filis. He performed an excellent surgery on my father and helped him get rid of tumor. From the very first meeting, Dr. Filis was very kind, explained everything clearly, and acted professionally. We felt like we were in safe hands. The surgery was very successful thanks to his skill. We are endlessly grateful to him for everything he has done for our family. Dr. Filis is not only a great doctor but also a sincere and caring person. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for an experienced and trustworthy neurosurgeon.

A new building in a great location. The clinic is very clean, and the staff is friendly. I had a cosmetic surgeon with Dr. Iakovos Georgiou, and everything went perfectly. The doctor and his team were extremely professional, and I’m beyond happy with the results. If anyone says there’s no quality surgery in Cyprus, they just haven’t been here.

All the nursing staff and doctors are excellent. I was in the I C U unit. Plus the food was delicious. I had been operated in a nice clean and professional clinic. Well done to all.

Unprofessional service provided by the director of the infectious diseases department of the institute. Incorrect diagnosis and improper treatment, if it can even be called treatment. As for their dermatologists, it’s better to remain silent—utterly lacking in professionalism. Steer clear of this so-called “medical” institution.
