Services at ZenHeal Prayagraj

Radiotherapy

Radiotherapy is one of the main treatments for cancers of the head and neck, cervix, breast, lung, oesophagus, brain and rectum. It can be used with the aim of controlling or eliminating the tumour, after surgery to reduce the chance of the disease returning, or to relieve symptoms such as pain or bleeding. The radiotherapy service in Prayagraj is led by radiation oncologist Dr Yashpal Singh.

A typical course involves a planning CT scan, contouring and dose planning by the radiation oncologist and physicist, and then daily sessions on weekdays for a number of weeks. Each session itself takes only minutes.

Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy is planned according to cancer type and stage. Many cycles are given in day care. Blood tests before each cycle, anti-nausea medicines and nutrition advice help manage side effects.

Cancer surgery

Surgical removal of tumours, with lymph node removal where needed, is central to treating many solid cancers. Surgery is coordinated with radiotherapy and chemotherapy so that the sequence of treatment is right for the patient.

Bone marrow transplant (BMT)

BMT may be advised for certain blood cancers such as some leukaemias, lymphomas and multiple myeloma. Eligibility is assessed case by case.

PET-CT scan

PET-CT helps with staging, radiotherapy planning and assessing response. Getting it done in the same hospital avoids extra trips and delays.

24x7 ICU and palliative care

A round-the-clock ICU supports patients with infections, complications or post-surgical needs. Palliative care helps with pain, breathlessness, appetite and emotional support, at any stage.

Treatment cost in Prayagraj

The cost of cancer treatment depends on the type and stage of cancer and the treatment the doctor recommends, so we do not quote fixed prices before the doctor has seen your reports. After your OPD consultation, the doctor explains your treatment plan and our patient counsellor guides you through pricing step by step. As a cancer-specific hospital, we keep treatment affordable so that everyone can access it, and our NGO supports needy patients so they can complete their treatment.

OPD fees are simple: an in-person OPD consultation is free, and a video consultation is ₹1,000.

Send your reports on WhatsApp (+91 98803 78899) for an estimate tailored to your treatment plan.

Travelling from nearby districts

• Pratapgarh: around 1.5–2 hours
• Kaushambi: around 1.5 hours
• Fatehpur: around 2–2.5 hours
• Bhadohi: around 1.5–2 hours
• Mirzapur: around 2–2.5 hours

Radiotherapy usually needs daily visits for several weeks. Many families arrange a stay in Prayagraj for the duration. Ask the team about this when you call.

Cancers commonly seen in the Prayagraj region

Doctors across eastern Uttar Pradesh and the Vindhya region of Madhya Pradesh see a high number of mouth and throat cancers, linked strongly with tobacco, gutkha and paan use. Cervical cancer and breast cancer are the most common cancers among women, and gall bladder cancer is notably frequent in the Gangetic belt. Lung, oesophageal and blood cancers are also seen regularly.

Many of these cancers are found late because early symptoms are ignored. Seek a check-up without delay if you notice:

• A mouth ulcer, white or red patch that has not healed in two to three weeks
• A lump in the breast or armpit, or change in breast shape or skin
• Bleeding after intercourse, between periods or after menopause
• Difficulty swallowing, persistent hoarseness or a cough lasting more than three weeks
• Unexplained weight loss, persistent fever or yellowing of the eyes

These symptoms can have many causes, and most are not cancer. But only proper tests can tell, and earlier diagnosis usually means more treatment options.

How families can help during treatment

Cancer treatment is a team effort that includes the family. Keep all reports in one folder in date order. Note down questions before each consultation. Help the patient eat small, frequent, protein-rich meals. Watch for warning signs during chemotherapy, such as fever above 100°F, bleeding or severe vomiting, and call the hospital at once. Finally, look after the caregiver too: long treatments are tiring, and sharing duties between family members helps.

Steps on your first visit

1. Registration with ID and Ayushman/insurance documents
2. Consultation and review of reports
3. Additional tests if required (blood, PET-CT, biopsy review)
4. Written treatment plan and schedule
5. Financial counselling and approvals

A realistic word about results

Cancer outcomes depend on the type, stage, biology of the tumour and the patient's overall health. No one can honestly make promises of a sure cure, and you should be careful of anyone who does. The aim at ZenHeal is to start the right treatment without delay, explain the plan honestly and support the family throughout.

Second opinions are welcome

If you have already started treatment elsewhere, or have been given a plan and want to understand it better, you are welcome to bring your reports for a second opinion. Seeking another view is a normal and sensible part of cancer care, and a good team will never discourage it. Share your reports on WhatsApp first so the doctor can review them before you travel, which saves time and avoids an unnecessary trip for families coming from other districts.
