Chemotherapy

Welcome to the Department of Medical Oncology at the Head and Neck Cancer Institute of India (HNCII), where cutting-edge cancer care meets compassionate patient support. Led by the esteemed Dr. Tapan Saikia and the dynamic Dr. Tasneem Bharmal, our department is at the forefront of cancer treatment and research.

At HNCII, we believe in a holistic approach to cancer care. Our services include precise diagnosis using the latest technology, customised treatment plans tailored to meet the unique needs of each patient, and advanced therapies such as chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, biological therapy, and targeted therapy. We also provide extensive supportive care to manage complications arising from both the disease and its treatment, ensuring our patients receive comprehensive care every step of the way.

Our oncology department seamlessly integrates care across three critical areas: the Outpatient Department (OPD), where we handle 700-1000 patient visits each month, providing expert consultations and follow-up care; the Inpatient Department (IPD), offering intensive care and monitoring for those needing hospitalisation; and the Daycare Unit, serving around 500 patients monthly for treatments that don’t require overnight stays.

Our team specialises in treating a range of cancers, including common solid tumours such as head and neck cancers, breast cancer, gastrointestinal cancers and gynaecological cancers, as well as haematological malignancies like lymphomas, multiple myeloma, and chronic leukemias. Our expertise and dedication ensure that each patient receives the highest quality care.

At HNCII’s Department of Medical Oncology, we are committed to transforming cancer treatment by providing comprehensive care that goes beyond just medical intervention. We strive to inspire strength and optimism in our patients, ensuring that each individual is supported throughout their journey. Trust us to stand by you in the fight against cancer, where every patient is valued, and every triumph, big or small, is acknowledged and celebrated.
