Medical Oncology

Cancer is no longer a dreadful word. It is a potentially curable disease today, if diagnosed at an early stage. When the cure is not possible, the patient can be treated to have a good quality of life. Early detection, correct diagnosis and a correct treatment plan is the key for successful treatment.

Right from its inception, the Oncology Department at Jaslok Hospital has been comprehensive, modern and equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, making it one of the best cancer hospitals in Mumbai, India. The facilities have been upgraded over a period time. In order to ensure the best treatment and care to our cancer patients, the management and trustees of our hospital have been constant visionaries and are always providing their full support.

Neurology – About the Department

Along with the management of patients with neurological disorders, the Neurology Department comprises outdoor-speciality clinics for the following neurological conditions: Movement disorders, headache, epilepsy, paediatric neurology problems and sleep disorders. Also, routine outdoor, indoor, dedicated emergency and neuro-intensive care facilities are available. We also have a paediatric neurologist dedicated for treating neurological problems in children.

As our eminent consultants have special knowledge and interest in specific neurological diseases, subspecialty clinics with dedicated OPDs are set up. The idea behind these clinics is to give more focused attention to patients with frequent neurological disorders, closely monitor their disease, adjust medications and advise alternative therapy when medications fail to control the disease or become refractory. For example, epilepsy surgery for certain refractory epilepsies after careful workup with prolonged inpatient electroencephalogram (EEG) recording (telemetry), special magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan etc.; and stereotaxic surgery for advanced Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders.

Paediatric Surgery

The Department of Paediatric Surgery caters to paediatric population from neonates to 18 years of age. We are fully equipped to effectively carry out all kinds of surgeries on patients belonging to this age group. There are four senior paediatric surgical consultants in our hospital—each having an individual slot to see patients during working hours.

Surgical Oncology

The Department of Surgical Oncology consists of dedicated surgical specialists, formerly at the Tata Memorial Hospital, for management of cancers of the head and neck, breast, thorax, gastrointestinal tract, female reproductive system and genitourinary tract.
