We all have someone in our lives who has been affected by Cancer. There is no doubt in the fact that Cancer diagnosis is distressing but without accurate diagnosis, correct prognosis and treatment becomes extremely challenging. This year we Close The Care Gap that means we tackle the harsh truths of Cancer diagnosis. It is shocking to learn that half of the world’s population does not have access to proper healthcare despite the rapid advancements in medical technology.

This year we attempted to #CloseTheCareGap at Sohana Hospital.

5-6 Cancer Check-up Camps Monthly for Free were organized in different parts of the State, wherein we took a team of medically qualified doctors & oncologists to the deepest parts of rural Punjab to get people screened and eradicate this disease at the grass roots. These camps also

include basic to advanced medical check up with 38 testing parameters including Random Blood Sugar (RBS) test, Oral & Dental checkup, Cardiac workup ECG absolutely free of cost.

Sohana Hospital also was the first private hospital in the region to offer free of cost mammography at women’s doorsteps for early detection of Breast Cancer via their specialized Cancer Screening Mobile Mammography Van commonly known as MammoVan in the tricity. This van is medically equipped with Oncologists and Technical staff available at all times, a doctor’s lounge for consultation, a waiting room and fully functioning toilets made for the convenience of the public.

In addition to this, Sohana Cancer Research Institute has made Consultation for Cancer OPD free of cost so that the underprivileged too can get access to the highest quality healthcare without money coming in the way. Besides this, the integration of Nuclear Medicine, Lab Testing and Pathology gives a symbiotic experience to our doctors as well as our patients. A free Dietetic is provided complimentary for proper nutrition guidance for the patients, for the convenience of our International Patients, we have a proper methodical system for Online Consultation and our diagnostic PET Scan Test which is otherwise very costly at other medical facilities, was standardized as 10,000/- ONLY at Sohana Hospital, making it affordable to encourage repeated testing for discouraging metastasis or a relapse amongst Cancer survivors.

At Sohana Hospital, we support the fighters and admire the survivors. It is not easy to live with cancer, but Sohana Cancer Research Institute provides help to those suffering, to keep doing the things they love even while receiving treatment.
