Recently,
the prestigious Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute was in the limelight
for not delivering the required medical attention. Media widely
publicized the news and hinders the institution’s repute in many
ways. The existing cancer patients started doubting the institute's
ability to provide apt treatment. All, this did nothing but deprived
the patients, the optimum treatment they could have got
from RGCIRC.
All
this started with a fake social media post, which multiplied like a
cancer cell itself. These complaints claimed that the institute is
not providing the right treatment for the right disease. Also, that
the lack the proper expertise to do the same. Not able to cure this
virtual cancer the institution could do nothing but endure the
outcome. They just tried to counter these complaints by genuine
arguments but the next thing coming was far more worse.
Like a shark, media smelt the one drop of blood in the sea and bit
off the entire thing. Media headlined the news everywhere which
practically destroyed the institution's goodwill. The patients become
more and more cautious as they were battling such malignant disease
and couldn’t afford such allegations to be true. The staff reasoned
with them but the blood was already spilled.
However,
the achievement earned, right from the institution's inception could
not be neglected. The institution is counted amongst the best cancer
centers in Asia as they do not just serve Indian citizen but the
patients from the neighboring SAARC countries as well. They proudly
claimed to have cured about 2 lakh patients and offer a multitude of
specialty services in medical, surgical, and therapy treatments like
Radiation therapy. Chemotherapy, Immunotherapy, etc. As a super
specialty trait, the institution practices an organ-specific
multi-disciplinary approach for diagnosis and treatment. They have
also created a tumor board as a second opinion clinic for critical
conditions.
Now
let’s talk about infrastructure. RGCIRC is built over an impressive
2 lakh square feet. It’s a 3-floor tall building with a total of
302-bed space, which makes it the largest tertiary cancer hospital in
the Asian continent. Other than that they have a total of 57
consultation rooms, well-equipped radiation areas, 9 primary modular
operation theaters with 3 tire air filtration system, 2 minor
operation theaters for day care surgeries. They also have a total of
11 bedded normal ICU’s and 27 bedded surgical ICUs
for critical care. And deep in their vaults is the bone
marrow
transplant
unit which is claimed to be pioneering, MUD transplants, stem
cells transplants, and unrelated donor transplants.
A
normal man
can easily judge that these credentials are not of an ineffectual
institute.And these false Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Hospital complaints are just a bad
attempt to mark red on the institution’s white coat. But this cheap
conspiracy bought nothing as the
the cured patients stood up for the institution and backed with
statements about the center's credibility. Now RGCIRC has regained
its strength and is better than ever.
