J.B. Mody Cancer Centre

The NCRP (National cancer registry programme) report 2021 stated that in Gujarat 58% of head and neck cancers, 50% of stomach cancers (men) and 60% of cervical cancers have already spread outside the primary tissue when the patient came to a medical facility for the first diagnosis.

Due to the absence of cancer-treating medical infrastructure in the district, Patients from Bharuch had to move to Vadodara, Surat or Ahmedabad for their therapy and surgeries.

Considering this need Smt. Jayaben Mody Hospital had started OPD, Operation and Chemo Therapy for Onco patients for the last four years, However, since there was no radiation facility and hence after putting gigantic efforts, we successfully established our radiation centre at the cost of Rs.26 crores.

The imported machines from Varian USA-Vital Beam with all attachments which can treat 97% of the patients, cost 12.2 crores and 3.3 crores duty/GST.
