Cancer Care
Comprehensive, evidence-based care delivered by experienced specialists using advanced medical technology.
BOOK APPOINTMENTAbout the Department
Cancer Care at Nano Hospitals is dedicated to the prevention, early detection, diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of various types of cancers. The department provides comprehensive oncology services addressing tumors affecting different organs and body systems.
Cancer may develop silently, with early symptoms such as unexplained weight loss, persistent fatigue, abnormal lumps, chronic cough, changes in bowel habits, or unusual bleeding often being overlooked. Early diagnosis significantly improves treatment outcomes. At Nano Hospitals, care focuses not only on eliminating cancer but also on preserving organ function, reducing treatment side effects, and supporting emotional and physical well-being.
Treatment follows a multidisciplinary, patient-centred approach involving oncologists, surgeons, radiologists, pathologists, and rehabilitation specialists. Each treatment plan is personalised based on cancer type, stage, genetic factors, and overall patient health.
Overview of Cancer Care
Cancer Care (Oncology) involves managing abnormal cell growth that can invade surrounding tissues or spread to other parts of the body. Timely screening, imaging, biopsy, and laboratory tests are essential for accurate staging and treatment planning.
Nano Hospitals emphasises early detection programs, evidence-based treatment protocols, and continuous monitoring to improve survival rates and quality of life.
