About Dr. S Jayalakshmi
Dr. S Jayalakshmi is Head of the Radiation Oncology and CyberKnife Centre (Unit II) at Artemis Hospital, Gurugram, bringing over 34 years of specialized clinical experience to cancer care. A graduate of Christian Medical College, Vellore (MD, 1992) and a Diplomate of the National Board in Radiation Oncology, she has established herself as a trusted leader in advanced radiation therapy techniques. Her career reflects a commitment to continuous professional development and evidence-based oncology practice.
Dr. Jayalakshmi's clinical expertise spans the full spectrum of modern radiation therapy—stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT), intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), and 3D conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT)—supported by specialized fellowships from the University of Bristol, Yashoda Hospitals Hyderabad, and Accuray International in San Jose, California. She has particular depth in head and neck malignancies and gynaecological cancers, managing complex cases with precision-focused techniques including CyberKnife radiosurgery, external beam radiotherapy, and brachytherapy modalities. Her technical foundation and international training enable her to deliver individualized treatment plans tailored to each patient's tumour biology and anatomy.
Dr. Jayalakshmi has established a strong reputation for welcoming and treating international patients from the Gulf region, Africa, and South Asia. Her experience managing diverse patient populations, combined with her fluency in English and Hindi, makes her accessible to patients seeking second opinions or definitive cancer care away from their home countries. She takes a collaborative, transparent approach to treatment planning, ensuring patients understand their diagnosis, options, and expected outcomes.
Artemis Hospital, where she leads the oncology radiation service, is a NABH-accredited tertiary-care facility in the NCR region with dedicated oncology wings, advanced imaging (CT simulation, MRI), and comprehensive supportive care services. The hospital's commitment to multimodal cancer treatment and international patient services aligns with best practices in medical tourism. Patients choosing Dr. Jayalakshmi's care benefit from her depth of experience, access to cutting-edge technology, and the hospital's coordinated team approach to complex oncology cases.
International patients should know that radiation oncology requires precision planning and often multiple follow-up sessions. Dr. Jayalakshmi and Artemis Hospital can arrange pre-treatment consultations via video, coordinate travel and accommodation logistics through Gaf Healthcare, and provide detailed treatment schedules to minimize disruption to patients' lives abroad.
