OVERVIEW OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY

Surgical Oncology Department in CIHSR aim to provide comprehensive cancer management at an affordable cost. Surgery is one of the main treatments of cancer. If diagnosed early it might be the only treatment that a patient requires and most cancers are treatable if diagnosed at an early stage.
On OPD basis we see patient of all types of solid tumour ranging from Gastrointestinal, breast, extremities soft tissue tumour, skin malignancies, Gynaecological cancer and Urological cancer.
Cancer cannot be managed by a single team, so every week we have MDT (multi-disciplinary team) meeting along with Radiation oncologist, Pathologist, Palliative and other concerned departments, where we plan the management of patient as per standard protocol.
Before taking up the patient for surgery we pre-habilitate the patient in consultation with Physiotherapist and Dietitian, so that patients have smooth recovery following surgery.
We are equipped with state-of-the-art Modular OT and proper ICU facilities. Our Nurses in OT as well as in ward is well trained who takes good care of patients.
Our goal is to provide holistic cancer care that is affordable for all.
