We are able to cater and convince a large number of Cancer affected patients by leveraging on the facilities of our Medical Oncology & Haematology Department too. The treatment of childhood cancers, leukemia and lymphomas and a majority of the solid cancers involve chemotherapy, i.e. treatment by medicines, which is used as a combined modality approach along with surgery and radiation therapy. Further, it is also used in selected advanced stage cancers for palliation. Our well-trained staff use infusion pumps & specially designed isolation rooms to take care of the specific requirements of the patients.
