Abhinaya Chakravarthy Baadashah Kichcha Sudeep, Renowned Actor & Director (Sandalwood), who inaugurated the facility said, “Cancer is a journey that affects not just the patient, but the entire family. What makes a real difference is timely diagnosis, awareness, and access to the right treatment at the right time. HCG’s new Hebbal facility is a powerful step in that direction, bringing advanced technology and expert care closer to people. It is heartening to see such world-class cancer care becoming more accessible for families in Bengaluru and across Karnataka.”

Ajaikumar, Founder & Chairman of HealthCare Global Enterprises Limited (HCG), said: “Cancer care today has become increasingly data-driven, technology-oriented and focused on improving long-term outcomes. Our goal is not only to prevent recurrences, but also to make even advanced and metastatic cancers manageable through personalised, multidisciplinary care.
