Ranchi, 26th August 2026: Medanta Abdur Razzaq Ansari Memorial Weavers Hospital, Ranchi, has launched its oncology services. Under this initiative, medical oncology and surgical oncology services will now be available at the hospital. This move marks a significant step towards strengthening the availability of specialized and advanced cancer treatment services for patients in Jharkhand and neighboring states.

Medanta has been providing healthcare services to the people of Ranchi and Jharkhand for over 11 years. During this period, thousands of patients from the region have benefited from various super-specialty services, including Cardiac Sciences, Neurosciences, Nephrology, Gastroenterology, and Orthopedics. With the launch of oncology services, the aim is to provide specialized consultation and treatment facilities for cancer patients right here in Ranchi.

Medanta has undertaken this initiative in response to the rising number of cancer cases in Ranchi and surrounding areas, and the need to provide patients with access to specialized cancer treatment closer to home. Through this program, the hospital aims to offer expert consultations, disease-specific treatment planning, medical oncology, and necessary surgical interventions—all within a single healthcare system.

The launch of the oncology program in Ranchi is a significant step towards bringing cancer care expertise and clinical capability closer to patients in Jharkhand and the surrounding regions. Additionally, eligible patients will be able to avail benefits under various government-sponsored health schemes, thereby improving their access to quality cancer treatment. Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Vishwajeet Kumar, Hospital Director at Medanta Abdur Razzaq Ansari Memorial Weavers Hospital, Ranchi, said, “Medanta has been serving the people of Jharkhand and neighboring states for over 11 years. It has been our constant endeavor to make specialized and advanced medical services increasingly accessible to patients in the region, close to their homes. Given the rising number of cancer cases and the need for specialized treatment, the launch of oncology services in Ranchi marks a significant milestone for us.”

Dr. Ain Srikanth, Medical Oncologist at Medanta Hospital Ranchi, stated, “Timely screening, accurate diagnosis, and a treatment plan tailored to the specific nature of the disease are crucial in cancer care. With the introduction of medical oncology services, our aim is to provide patients with access to expert consultations and modern, appropriate treatment options right here in their own city. This ensures continuity of care and alleviates the inconvenience caused to patients and their families by having to travel to other cities for treatment.”

Dr. Anish, Surgical Oncologist at Medanta Hospital Ranchi, said, “Surgery is a vital component of treatment for many cancer cases and requires specialized oncological surgical care. The launch of surgical oncology services in Ranchi aims to provide patients with access to expert surgical consultations and treatment locally. We strive to deliver more comprehensive and convenient cancer care through enhanced coordination between medical and surgical oncology.”
