No. Some cancers (especially early stage reproductive cancers) can be cured with surgery, hormone therapies, and monitoring.

My endometrial cancer was cured by a hysterectomy, but it could have been treated with having a hormonal IUD. Part if the treatment is monitoring, and for the next few years I will be having 6 monthly reviews.
