Chennai, India
Apollo Proton Cancer Centre is a multi-speciality campus in Chennai, India with 150+ beds. Opened in 2019. Coordinators here already know how to hold an international stay — from the first video consult through the week after you fly home.
Overview
Apollo Proton Cancer Centre in Chennai opened in 2019 with 150 beds and a proton gantry that is the reason most families fly this far. JCI and NABH are current. Radiation here is protons when the Bragg peak is the clinical argument, and photons when it is not. Neuro-oncology sits on the same campus. GAF Healthcare will not sell a proton course that IMRT could have done at home.
Protons when the Bragg peak is the argument — photons when it is not.

★★★★★
Initially I was very hesitant what to do, where to go for the treatment of my father who was suffering with prostate cancer. Thanks to google, I came into touch with Gaf Healthcare. They have arranged everything, starting from treatment plan, video consultation, airport pickup, to surgery and following up. My father was operated in Sahyadri Pune, robotic prostatectomy was done. Now he is fine.
★★★★★
The hospitality was at its point. I appreciate the great service I got from the team. Being away from Home and get the feeling like you are at home is what Gaf is doing. Thank you once more, this have lifetime memories in my life.
★★★★★
Wonderful experience with Gaf Healthcare. I was quite hesitant before traveling. But the way entire journey has been planned, charted out and facilitated by Gaf was truly exceptional. Dr. Ritu in Max has treated me well. My eye surgery went well.
