Livasa Hospital Hoshiarpur strengthens comprehensive cancer care
Hoshiarpur 7 August ( PDL ) : Livasa Hospital Hoshiarpur on Friday strengthened its oncology programme by bringing comprehensive cancer care closer to patients across the region. The programme offers advanced diagnostics, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, precision oncology, complex cancer surgeries and multidisciplinary treatment planning under one roof, reducing the need for patients to travel outside the region for specialised care. The comprehensive oncology programme is supported by two experienced specialists including Dr. Shubh Mahindru, Director – Surgical Oncology, and Dr. Mayank Kapoor, Consultant – Medical Oncology.
Addressing a press conference today, Dr. Mahindru said that while not all cancers are preventable, adopting healthy lifestyle habits can reduce the risk of many common cancers. He said,” Avoiding tobacco in all forms, limiting alcohol consumption, maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, eating a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, receiving recommended vaccinations, and undergoing age-appropriate cancer screening can help detect disease early, when treatment is often most effective.”
Dr. Kapoor said,” Cancer remains one of the leading causes of illness worldwide, but outcomes have improved significantly with early detection and advances in treatment. Experts at Livasa Hospital Hoshiarpur emphasised that timely diagnosis, personalised treatment plans and coordinated care involving medical and surgical oncology play a critical role in improving survival rates and quality of life.” Mr. Anurag Yadav, CEO, Livasa Hospitals, said, "Quality cancer care should be available where people need it most. By strengthening our oncology programme at Hoshiarpur, we are delighted to bring advanced, multidisciplinary cancer care closer to communities, enabling patients to begin timely treatment with confidence and convenience."
