Walking beside you on your journey to recovery with advanced cancer care and compassionate support—right here in Tura.
Overview
A cancer diagnosis is one of the most challenging moments in a person's life. It brings fear, confusion, and a thousand questions. At A. Care Hospital, we want you to know one thing above all else: You are not alone.
Our Department of Oncology is established with a singular mission—to bring high-quality cancer treatment to the people of Garo Hills. We understand that fighting cancer is physically exhausting. By providing expert consultation, Chemotherapy, and surgical care locally, we ensure that patients can focus their energy on healing, rather than on the stress of long-distance travel.

Our Services: A Comprehensive Approach
Medical Oncology & Chemotherapy
Medication is a powerful tool in fighting cancer. We provide a safe, sterile, and monitored environment for administering these treatments.
• Day Care Chemotherapy: Many treatments do not require an overnight stay. Our specialized Chemo ward allows you to receive your treatment in a comfortable recliner and go home the same day to sleep in your own bed.
• Targeted Therapy: Using modern medicines that attack cancer cells while sparing healthy ones, reducing side effects.
• Hormonal Therapy: Management of hormone-sensitive cancers (like certain breast or prostate cancers).
Surgical Oncology
See also: General Surgery
Surgery is often the first step in removing a tumor. Our surgical team works closely with oncologists to perform precise operations.
• Tumor Resection: Surgical removal of lumps and tumors from the breast, thyroid, gastrointestinal tract, and soft tissues.
• Biopsies: Minor surgical procedures to remove a small piece of tissue for testing, ensuring an accurate diagnosis.
Cancer Screening & Early Detection
Cancer is most beatable when caught early. We offer screening programs designed to spot the warning signs before they become critical.
• Pap Smears & Mammograms: For early detection of cervical and breast issues.
• Biopsy & Histopathology: Our laboratory services provide the critical data needed to understand the type and stage of the disease.
Pain & Palliative Care
Healing isn't just about curing the disease; it's about quality of life. We are dedicated to Pain Management. No patient should have to suffer in silence. Our team uses advanced pain relief protocols to ensure dignity and comfort at every stage of the illness.
Supportive Care: Treating the Whole Person
Cancer affects more than just the body. It impacts your appetite, your energy, and your emotions.
• Onco-Nutrition: Our Diet & Nutrition experts create specialized meal plans to help patients maintain their strength and weight during chemotherapy.
• Counseling Support: We provide a listening ear and emotional support for patients and their families, helping them navigate the mental toll of the illness.
