Preventive Oncology

Cancer cases and deaths due to cancer are rapidly increasing in the Indian subcontinent!
The majority of cancers in our country are diagnosed at advanced stages, leading to poor treatment outcomes and reduced survival rates. More than 50% of cancers are preventable by modifying risk factors.

“Intellectuals solve problems, geniuses prevent them.”

It is well known that ‘Prevention is better than cure’. Although it may appear to be a simple statement, it continues to be neglected and undermined. Since the majority of cancers are diagnosed at locally advanced or advanced stages, it becomes crucial to prevent the occurrence of cancer and to detect it at an early stage.

Our Preventive Oncology clinic aims to detect cancer at an early stage, before the onset of symptoms, and create awareness of cancer causation and prevention, focusing on the holistic well-being of the individual.  Through the integration of advanced vaccination programs, including the latest cervical cancer vaccines, we aim to reduce the burden of the most prevalent cancers in our country.
