Medical Oncology

The Medical Oncology department provides excellent in-and out-patient and day-care facilities. The department deals with the systemic therapy of cancer including chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, targeted therapies, supportive care and bone marrow transplantation. Our experienced team, trained in best institutes in the country and abroad, uses chemotherapeutic drugs to treat various cancers. Medical oncology improves the efficacy of surgical and radiation oncology when cancer is diagnosed early. In an advance stage, it improves the quality of lives of patients and prolongs survival.

During the treatment patients are given chemotherapy drugs in the form of tablets and injections. The treatment is given once in a few weeks for a period of time depending upon the condition of patients and the nature of cancer. Prior to starting with the treatment, all side-effects of chemotherapy are managed through pre-medications. The department is equipped with the most advanced chemo-delivery technology and equipment to make the experience easier and better for patients.

We make sure patients complete their drug cycles within the prescribed time-limit and move to the next level of treatment according to the plan. We keep ourselves updated with the latest drugs, procedures, and innovations in the field of medical oncology to give best possible care to cancer patients. We also have patient-friendly facilities like pain management and supportive care clinic at the hospital to serve our patients better.
