Abstract

Nondisclosure of cancer diagnosis is common in many Eastern countries. Consequently, immigrant families often approach oncologists with requests for nondisclosure in Western countries. Aims: To explore differences in the attitudes and practices of Western‑born and nonWestern born oncologists in Australia when faced with a nondisclosure request.
