Behind every number is a story of courage, resilience and recovery.

You shouldn't have to navigate different opinions from multiple doctors on your own.

At SVICCAR, Tirupati, our specialists work together to review your case and build one consensus-backed treatment plan.​

"This World Cancer Day, I think of the fear, courage, and families behind every diagnosis. Cancer is not just medical, it’s human."
At Tata Cancer Care Foundation, we stand with you from the first doubt to the road ahead. With you, every step.

Real change starts with the right information.
Dr. Masthan Basha from our Radiation Oncology team joined the students of Sri Padmavathi Girls High School to demystify cancer care and emphasize the importance of early intervention.​
Listen Early. Detect Early. ​

Knowledge is the strongest defense. On Feb 28, SVICCAR’s Dr. SL Sandhya led a cancer awareness session for 25 members of the Panchayati Raj Engineering Section covering breast, cervical, and oral cancer risks, prevention, and the life-saving role of the HPV vaccine.

Red Flag or Green Flag: Health Edition
We sat down with Dr. @PPenumadu , Head of Surgical Oncology at SVICCAR, to decode early warning signs.
Pain isn’t the first signal—your body gives clues sooner.
Spot red flags early, build green habits.

At SVICCAR, our work doesn't stop when the shift ends.

On April 4th, 90 of our staff donated blood, because the spirit of care goes beyond the wards.

Proud of our SVICCAR team for this beautiful act of solidarity.
