Practises at
Medanta - The MedicityDelhi NCR, India
Medanta — The Medicity sits on the Gurugram side of Delhi NCR: a 1,600-bed house that opened in 2009 and runs radiation like a department, not a side list. JCI, NABH and NABL are on the wall. The useful fact for a travelling patient is the named radiation team — linac, stereotactic and brachytherapy already booked every week — and an international desk that meets night landings. If Gurugram is the wrong campus for the constraint, the dossier should say so before you fly.
