Best cancer research institute in kolkata. So big area and the hospital area is so clean. There is a canteen for all, and a small cafe to eat or drink. This hospital is one of the most clean hospital. Very nice environment. Staffs behavior is good. The whole area is covered with many of flowers and plants. It's too much eye soothing. Best treatment provided here for cancer.

One of the best cancer hospital in India, probably the best in eastern India. Well qualified doctors and good staffs. There are 2 categories of treatment, general and private. In General, the treatment cost is very less but you cannot claim health insurance. In private category, you can avail health insurance and the process is swift enough if you run little bit.
Overall, you can trust the place and go for cancer treatment. No additional charges apart from an infection control charge of 300 per day.
In general category, bed charges are 2100 per day and in private, it is 7000 per day. Doctor consultation charges per day is 1200 in private category.
In OPD, for general category consultation charges are 300 and for private it is 700.

Okay! I want to give some clarity about this hospital as I’m treating my Mom in here.
Firstly: The infrastructure is top, undoubtedly with modern concept.

Secondly: Maintenance is highly likeable, they clean and hygiene every time, even bathrooms are nicely maintained.

Thirdly: I have unique experiences with Stuff behaviour, in my opinion, I have found Phase 1 building’s stuff are more professional, understanding, polite than Phase 2 building stuffs. In phase 2 building, they don’t care to help patient’s problem or there feelings. I’m observing this after coming this building, every stuff from the receptionist, security guards even appointment desk lady behaving unprofessional, doing unnecessary argue, ignoring, making scene with patient’s guardians.
When I was asked in reception about our doctor visiting she behaved like we are bagging for treatment or they are treating us for free. Not only me with everyone they behave quite bad.
They are more like ( parar mashider addar jaiga ) arguing with each-other, gossiping etc.
This all experience from phase 2 building.

Fourthly: Most worst thing I’ve experienced is waiting time, waiting like hell!!???????? ???? If you go for just an echo then dear you have stay (hell) all day long same for simple ultrasound too. Pathetic experience. Horrible. They don’t care of patients how critical are there situation, still they have to stay long time for their god shake frequent tests.

Fifthly: Cost… I don’t know, why they have told me different prices for Pet Ct Scan. At first they told us the charge would be 24k for PET CT SCAN When we came for payment they charged 20k. I know it’s good they charged us less but at first why they mislead the charges I don’t know. ????u200d♀️
Test charges According me: Ultrasound + Mammogram u003d rs.2500/-
Biopsy u003d rs. 7,550/-
Pet CT Scan u003d rs. 20,000/-
Fish for her u003d rs. 5,500/-
Echo u003d rs. 1800/-
First time OPD charge u003d rs. 300/-
Next time chrages u003d rs. 150/-
Doctor fees are nominal but test are same like other institutes.

Sixth: Treatment…. This is our first time treatment in TMC Kolkata soo I wasn’t aware about there how they see and treat different patients general and private wise.
I don’t it is which universal rule- general patients will be treated by junior teammates under advice of their senior doctor. Opposite side Private patient’s will be treated by senior doctor at first point.
And junior doctor, didn’t know anything beside panicking in my every question!! Soo shameful.
I have talk today and requested that we want to talk to senior doctor.
Let’s see next time what they do…
I’m afraid, they have told me that those junior doctors will give chemo to my mom????
I’m not going agree with them.. will have a conversation at next week.

Seventh: They will do drama for accepting sasthya sathi card. Like, bed isn’t available, your card isn’t working, blah blah.. happened with some patients.

Eighth: attitude is too bad.

Overall money is everything, if you have money then don’t make mistake like me to treat here…???? I’ll update according treatment go on…
