I underwent treatment for Carcinoma of the left oropharynx (posterior 1/3 of the tongue) at VS Hospitals, Chetpet, for 2.5 months from November 2025, under the care of Dr. P. Balasubramaniam, Sr. Radiation Oncologist, and Dr. D.S. Manohar, Sr. Consultant Medical Oncologist. The Doctors were veterans in the field and explained in detail, the initial diagnosis, course of treatment, possible side effects, and how to manage them. They quickly arrived at the treatment plan and executed it perfectly.There were a couple of pauses in the treatment because of the side effects, but the Doctors managed them very well and were very reassuring throughout.
Special thanks to Dr Balasubramaniam and Dr U. Padmavathy for their kind attention to my treatment. Their care and attention made me feel very comfortable throughout the period of treatment.They were always available to answer my queries, handle the side effects from the treatment, and helped me go through the entire course of treatment with their reassuring presence.
My sincere thanks also to the staff at the department of Radiation Oncology - Ms Sharmila (staff nurse), Ms Leena, Mr Naveen, Ms Ajitha, Mr Rahul, Mr Kirubakaran, Ms Lakshmi, Ms Sudha, and Ms Sathya who were administering the radiation sessions and monitoring the treatment progress for the entire duration. They were very professional and courteous throughout my treatment. The facility was clean and well-maintained, and the treatment procedure and equipment used were all modern.
I would also like to thank the staff at the reception, Insurance desk, Billing team, and the nurses at the main and annexe buildings, where I underwent my Chemotherapy sessions, for their care and attention. Overall, my experience with VS Hospitals, Chetpet, was extremely good, and I felt I was in safe hands, under the expert care of a dedicated team of professionals. I would highly recommend VS Hospitals, Chetpet, for their expertise, experience, and affordable treatment. Thanks to all and God bless you.
