Evidence based cancer care with humane touch

Recent endeavours

Minimally invasive cancer surgery

We offer laparoscopic surgery for cancers of esophagus, rectum, kidney and uterus. We strive to maintain our impressive long term outcomes of open surgery with better short term outcomes.

Sentinel lymph node biopsy

Minimally invasive cancer surgery

As the awareness about breast cancer is increasing, many women are presenting with early breast cancers. Complete axillary lymph node dissection for those with no involved nodes in axilla increases the chances of lymph edema. So we have started with sentinel node biopsy from 2020. Results seem promising
