About the Department

Understanding Cancer Care

Oncology is the branch of medicine dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. It is one of the most rapidly evolving fields in medicine with targeted therapies, immunotherapies, and precision oncology transforming outcomes for cancers that were once considered uniformly fatal. Today, many cancers are curable when detected early, and even advanced cancers can often be managed as chronic conditions with sustained quality of life. A strong oncology programme requires deep integration between multiple specialties, advanced pathology and imaging, and a team committed to treating the whole person, not just the tumour.

Oncology at MNR Hospital

The Cancer Care Centre at MNR Hospital operates on a multidisciplinary model every new cancer diagnosis is discussed in a weekly Tumour Board meeting attended by medical oncologists, surgical oncologists, radiologists, pathologists, and palliative care specialists. This ensures that each patient receives a comprehensive, evidence-based treatment plan rather than a siloed specialist opinion. We provide medical oncology services including chemotherapy, targeted therapy, hormone therapy, and immunotherapy infusion in a dedicated day-care oncology unit with trained oncology nurses. Our surgical oncology team performs cancer resections across multiple sites including breast, colorectal, gastric, hepatic, and thyroid cancers.

Support Through Every Stage

Cancer care extends far beyond treatment. Our oncology programme includes nutritional counselling, psychological support, palliative care integration from diagnosis, and a robust survivorship programme for patients who have completed treatment. We believe that the goal of oncology is not only to treat cancer but to preserve function, dignity, and hope at every stage of the disease.
