View full profile →Hyderabad's only dedicated cancer-specialist network. 17 super-specialist oncologists. 7 centres across the city. Evidence-based care with 7–16% better survival outcomes.
Why Patients Choose Us
As Hyderabad's only dedicated cancer-specialist network, every decision we make — from staffing to protocols — is built around one thing: better outcomes for cancer patients.
Unlike general hospitals with an oncology wing, CION's 17 oncologists work exclusively in cancer care — medical, surgical, and radiation — every single day.
Every patient's case is reviewed by a panel of specialists before treatment begins. No single-doctor decisions. This collaborative review is associated with improved survival outcomes globally.
From Kukatpally to Banjara Hills, specialist oncology care is within reach — no need to travel to a distant hospital for every appointment and infusion.
Our documented survival data across major cancer types shows measurably better outcomes compared to general hospital oncology departments — because cancer is all we do.
The CION Patient Support Program provides significant discounts on select cancer medications and diagnostics, reducing the financial burden on families during treatment.
Specialist consultation time is not rushed. Appointments are managed to minimise waiting, and specialists spend the time needed to properly explain diagnosis and treatment options.

Check Your EligibilityAbout CION
When you or a loved one receives a cancer diagnosis, the next question is always: where should I go for treatment? In Hyderabad, most hospitals have an oncology department — but CION Cancer Clinics is different. It is built exclusively for cancer care, where every doctor, every protocol, and every staff member is focused solely on oncology. Read our story and how CION was founded.
At a general hospital, the oncology wing competes for resources, specialist time, and infrastructure. At CION, the entire organisation exists for one patient population: cancer patients. Our world-class cancer care model is built on this single-minded focus — and it translates directly into better outcomes, with documented 7–16% higher survival rates across major cancer types. See our clinical achievements and milestones.
Effective cancer treatment rarely involves just one type of intervention. CION covers the full spectrum:
Cancer treatment decisions are too consequential for any single doctor to make alone. At CION, every new patient's case is presented to a multidisciplinary tumour board — a panel of a medical oncologist, surgical oncologist, radiation oncologist, radiologist, and pathologist — who collectively review all reports and agree on the best treatment plan. This approach is the global gold standard in cancer care and is associated with improved survival, reduced over-treatment, and better quality of life. Learn more about our care model.
Accurate staging is the foundation of effective cancer treatment. CION provides access to advanced cancer diagnostics including PET-CT scans in Hyderabad starting at ₹9,999 — whole body, PSMA, Dotatate, Dotanoc, and FDopa variants — with results delivered the same day. Getting a second opinion on your existing scan or biopsy report is also available at any CION centre.
CION's team of 17 specialist oncologists includes graduates of AIIMS New Delhi, European Certified Medical Oncologists (ECMO), MRCP-qualified specialists from the UK, and MCh Surgical Oncology-qualified surgeons. Patients no longer need to travel to Chennai, Mumbai, or Delhi for this calibre of specialist care:
