Treatment Approach

We, at HCG NCHRI Cancer Centre, believe in delivering cancer care that is value-based and patient-centric.

The multidisciplinary treatment approach helps our specialists devise a customised treatment plan for our patients based on their cancer type, stage and their overall condition. In other words, the treatment given will be specific to that patient rather than to that specific cancer type.

The multidisciplinary team comprises medical, surgical and radiation oncologists along with trained experts in pain management, onco-dietetics and onco-pathology.

This personalised approach positively impacts the treatment response and recovery among patients.
