Shenbagam : Endorsing health equity in cancer care
We believe that access to quality  cancer care needs to be expanded to ensure that everybody is provided the same care and access to state-of-the-art technology that patients in major care centers receive. Fear of cancer, perceived cost of care, and lack of  referral are common barriers to cancer screening and other preventive services.

Shenbagam Cancer Care owes its inspiration
 to late Prof. Dr. Udaya Mahadevan 
 whose lived wisdom contineus to guide its trajectory.
