Cancer is overall the fourth leading cause of death in India and in adults it is the second largest cause of death. Regency Hospital has an efficient Department of Oncology to provide care to cancer patients. There are qualified Medical and Surgical oncologists to evaluate, treat the follow-up patients with all types of Cancers.The hospital has a well-equipped Pathology lab and Radiology department, providing in-house facilities for proper diagnosis, staging and adequate management. Competent and concerned staff allows the patients to have best advice and care available under one roof.
With recent advances Cancer is now a curable disease, if detected early.

Common symptoms of Cancer that require suspicion include :

non-healing ulcer, lumps (masses any where in body ), blood in cough /urine /stool, abnormal menstrual bleeding,difficulty in swallowing, hoarseness, long-standing constipation and unwanted persistent weight-loss. These symptoms warrant a visit to the physician for further evaluation.
