Understanding Endometrial Cancer

Endometrial cancer begins in the inner lining of the uterus and is most commonly diagnosed after menopause, though it can also affect younger women. Hormonal imbalance, obesity, diabetes, and genetic factors may increase risk.

H.O.P.E Oncology Clinic was founded by Dr. Amish Vora, a globally trained Medical Oncologist with experience at leading institutions such as Tata Memorial Hospital, AIIMS, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (USA), and the NHS (UK). Guided by the philosophy of Holistic Oncology with Patient Empathy, we focus on treating the cancer while preserving dignity, hormonal health, and quality of life.
