Hello everyone!
In these difficult times of the COVID pandemic, I have a few words to say.
Right now we are in the middle of a Covid pandemic. All elective surgeries are being postponed in all hospitals. Only emergency surgeries are being done.
Cancer is a relative emergency for the patient. Cancer patients cannot wait for their surgery as the cancer can spread or stage of the cancer can advance, where surgery then has to be cancelled.
I am therefore telling this to all my patients and you all out there, that I am available for all cancer operations in select hospitals at present. We are taking all the necessary precautions like PPEs for the patient, doctors and the nursing team during surgeries. Each patient is being tested for COVID before the surgery. Patients are being admitted in separate wards away from the general patients.
In short, we are offering a safe and well protected environment for cancer surgeries, in select hospitals, having the infrastructure to handle all these patients.
So don’t cancel or postpone your cancer treatments.
WE ARE THERE FOR YOU IN THESE DIFFICULT TIMES
