Practises at
Yashoda Hospitals, SecunderabadHyderabad, India
Yashoda Hospitals, Secunderabad is the 1,000-bed twin of the group’s Hyderabad practice, JCI and NABH, with radiation consultants who live on SRS, SBRT and brachytherapy. CyberKnife sits on the same map. Secunderabad is not a compromise campus; it is where those named oncologists contour. If Somajiguda is the right floor instead, the dossier should say so in the first paragraph.
