Chemotherapy is one of the most important treatments in all types of cancer. It targets cancer cells with drugs given through IV line. There are many different types of “chemo” and different people respond to it in different ways(each patient has side effects based on their immunity). Chemotherapy destroys cancer cells, but also stops or slows their growth and prevents them from spreading to other parts of the body. Chemotherapy can be a stand-alone treatment or given with other forms of intervention like radiation and surgery. The procedure can also make other treatments more effective. Thus our chemotherapy Cancer Centre is most suited for cancer care.

A number of times Patients and their care giver are not fully satisfied with their doctor, either because they haven’t undertood the treatment plan well or at times it’s the fear of asking. In both the cases it’s the patient who is at loss as they need to be convinced with the doctor’s treatment plan to avoid and misunderstandings and feel bad when the medicine doesn’t give desired results.
