How do you book and prepare for a visit to Tolichowki?
- 1
Reach our care team
Call the helpline or leave your number here. Tell them what was found and where, and which language you prefer. If you are calling for a parent or relative, that is fine.
- 2
Get the right doctor booked
The team matches your reports to a specialist and fixes a time. They confirm the doctor is in that day, so you do not travel for nothing.
- 3
Prepare your file
Biopsy reports, scan CDs, blood tests, discharge papers and a list of current medicines. Old papers count too.
- 4
Come with family
Bring the person who will help decide. Two sets of ears remember more of what the doctor says. Write your questions down before you leave home.
What do the first words your doctor uses mean?
Diagnosis
The name of what you have, usually confirmed by a biopsy. Treatment is not planned until the diagnosis is clear.
Staging scans
Scans done after diagnosis to see whether the cancer has spread, and how far. They decide the stage.
Margin
The rim of normal tissue around what a surgeon removes. A clear margin means no cancer cells were seen at the edge.
Palliative care
Care that eases pain and other symptoms. It can run alongside treatment at any stage, not only near the end.
Follow-up
Visits after treatment ends, to watch for side effects that last and any sign of the cancer returning.
What is offered at CION Tolichowki, and what is not?
Consultations and chemotherapy are given at CION Tolichowki. Operations and radiotherapy are not done here. Your doctors plan them, and our care team books them at the centre that does them, so you know the place before you agree.
1How chemotherapy is given here
Most people have chemotherapy as day-care. Blood counts are checked, the treatment is given under nursing watch, and the patient goes home that day. If your medicines need a hospital stay, you are told beforehand.
2Address and timings
CION Cancer Clinics, 12-2-718, Khader Bagh Road, inside Premier Hospital, Padmanabha Nagar, Toli Chowki, Hyderabad, Telangana 500008. It is near the Tolichowki bus stop. The centre is open Monday to Saturday, 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM.
3Choosing a different centre
CION also has centres at Masab Tank, Banjara Hills, Ameerpet and elsewhere in Hyderabad. The same helpline books whichever is easiest for you.
Good to know
This page cannot tell you which doctor your case needs. Your reports can. Share them with our care team first.
Which things people say about cancer care should you ignore?
Myth
"A specialist is only for advanced cancer."
What is true: The earlier a specialist sees you, the more choices you usually have. Even a suspicious scan without a diagnosis is a good reason to book.
Myth
"Cancer runs in families, so nothing can be done."
What is true: Most cancers are not inherited. When a family pattern exists, it can guide earlier checks and testing for relatives, which is a reason to act rather than wait.
Myth
"Hair loss means the treatment is working."
What is true: Hair loss is a side effect of some medicines, not a sign of success. Many modern treatments cause little hair loss and still work. Your doctor judges progress with scans and tests.
Myth
"Going for a second opinion wastes time."
What is true: A second opinion usually takes little time and can confirm a plan or catch a gap before treatment starts. Most families feel more settled after one, whichever way it goes, and the first doctor can still treat you.

Medically reviewed by Dr. Owais Mohammed, Consultant Medical Oncologist (MBBS, MD (General Medicine), DrNB (Medical Oncology), ECMO, MRCP SCE (Medical Oncology) (UK)). Last reviewed October 2026. This page is general information for families from Tolichowki, not medical advice: your specialist advises on tests and treatment after seeing you.
What do families want to know about CION Tolichowki?
Still unsure? Call 1800 202 8726.
1Who are the oncologists at CION Tolichowki?
Medical oncologist Dr. Owais Mohammed and Head of Surgical Oncology Dr. Imaduddin Mohammed see patients here. They work with the wider CION team, including radiation and blood cancer specialists. Call the helpline to check who is in on the day you plan to visit.
2Why is the address inside Premier Hospital?
The CION centre is located at that address on Khader Bagh Road. Your cancer consultations and chemotherapy there are with CION's doctors and nurses. For anything outside your cancer care, ask our care team who to speak to.
3Can I have chemotherapy at Tolichowki?
Yes. It is given here, mostly as day-care, so most people go home the same day. Your blood counts are checked first, and your oncologist tells you in advance if any treatment needs a hospital stay.
4Where will surgery or radiotherapy happen?
Not at Tolichowki. Your CION doctors plan these, and our care team books them at the centre that does them. You are told the name of that centre and given a written estimate before you agree.
5What are the opening hours?
Monday to Saturday, 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM. The centre is on Khader Bagh Road in Padmanabha Nagar, near the Tolichowki bus stop. Call before you come so the doctor you need is there.
6Is cashless insurance possible?
CION's team helps with cashless insurance and gives you a written estimate before you start. Bring your insurance card and policy papers. If you have employer or government cover, tell the team when you call so it can be checked.
7Can the family meet the doctor before the patient comes?
Yes. Many families start with a talk about the reports, especially when the patient is unwell. The oncologist will still need to see the patient before treatment is planned, but a great deal can be explained first.
8Will you review a plan from another hospital?
Yes. Bring the plan and all the reports behind it. An oncologist will tell you whether they agree, and explain why if not. It does not commit you to treatment at CION, and it often helps families decide with more confidence.
