Shankara provides everything under one roof, I don't have to go anywhere else for any kind of diagnosis or tests.

I was in 8th standard when I was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia, my parents could not handle when the doctor told us the diagnosis. Doctors at Shankara Cancer Hospital did not delay my treatment. I was immediately admitted and my chemotherapies were started. The nurses motivated me whenever I was low and they treated me as their little sister. During the course of my treatment, I made a lot of friends and even after the completion of my treatment, they are in touch. I am forever grateful to Shankara for giving me the strength to fight and win against cancer.
We adhere to the highest standards of integrity and transparency in all aspects of patient care and research, earning the trust and confidence of the community. Ethical considerations are paramount in everything we do and the guiding principle of Shankara Cancer Hospitals. Our healthcare team is committed to providing not only medical expertise but also empathy and support to every patient and their loved ones.
Our commitment to excellence extends to every detail of the patient experience. The custom-built lounge chairs and free waiting area in the ICU are designed with the patients’ and caregivers’ comfort and convenience in mind. Furthermore, the Hospital Infection Control Committee (HICC) practices stringent infection prevention measures across the hospital and vigilantly intercepts infections by monitoring the air and water quality within the hospital premises. Through these expert practices, Shankara Cancer Hospitals rigorously maintains the lowest hospital-acquired infection rates, thus, facilitating a speedy and hassle-free recovery of all our patients.
The hospital is the best, cleanest and growing. They keep humanity on a high pedestal and their efforts is to heal the nation with care.
We have made a remarkable impact in the lives of cancer patients through our compassion-driven approach to cancer care by making novel provisions such as dormitory facilities for patients travelling from far away during the treatment, the Nithya Anna Dana Scheme for general ward patients and school away from school for paediatric patients.

The holy environment of the hospital made me feel secure. The treatment was difficult but the environment, atmosphere, hospitality and the way they took care of me were so soothing that I felt like I was living in a five-star hotel rather than undergoing cancer treatment. Here in Shankara Cancer Hospitals, right from the chief doctor to the housekeeping staff, they have so much compassion towards the patient. There is no discrimination between the quality of treatment provided to the different categories of wards. Even in the toughest phase of life, there was a good experience. I received a lot of support from staff, especially the nurses and doctors.
