2How much is the first consultation at CION Kukatpally?
Your first consultation with a CION specialist at Kukatpally is ₹950. If you’ve already been diagnosed with cancer, your first second opinion is free: a specialist reviews your reports with you in person. The tumour board review of your case is free for every patient. Tests, scans and treatment are paid for separately, and you get a written cost estimate before treatment starts.
3Can I have chemotherapy at the Kukatpally centre?
Yes. Day-care chemotherapy, immunotherapy and targeted therapy are given there, and you go home the same day. Your medical oncologist plans each cycle.
4Which doctors see patients at Kukatpally, and when?

6Can I bring reports from another hospital for a second opinion?
Yes. Bring your biopsy report, scans with their CDs, treatment details and medicine list. A CION specialist goes through them with you, and your case goes to the tumour board. There’s no commitment to move your treatment to CION.
7Do you help with insurance or EMI?
Yes. The team helps with cashless insurance, there’s an EMI facility, and you get a written cost estimate before treatment starts. Ask at the desk or when you call.
