About Apollo Cancer Centre, Teynampet

Apollo Speciality Hospitals, Teynampet — formally known as the Apollo Cancer Centre (ACC), Teynampet — located at No. 320, Anna Salai, Nandanam, Chennai is one of India's most historically significant and technologically pioneering oncology and super-speciality institutions. India's first ISO-certified healthcare provider, and the country's first NABH-accredited oncology hospital, Apollo Cancer Centre Teynampet is widely regarded as the institution that defined cancer care standards in India. Operating as a 290-bed dedicated cancer and super-specialty centre, ACC delivers 360-degree cancer care across the full cancer treatment spectrum: prevention, screening, diagnosis, multi-modality treatment (surgical, medical, and radiation oncology), bone marrow transplant, palliative care, and rehabilitation — all under one roof, informed by the organ-based practice model of specialised Cancer Management Teams. Apollo Cancer Centre Teynampet has pioneered numerous medical milestones: it was the first hospital in South-East Asia to introduce the 64-Slice PET-CT scanner, the first in India to introduce the CyberKnife® robotic radiosurgery system in 2009, and the first private hospital in India to complete CAR-T Cell Therapy in 2024. It also introduced South India's first ExcelsiusGPS® Spine Robotic Navigation Platform, and has performed 50+ surgeries with it. Beyond oncology, ACC provides advanced tertiary care in neurology and neurosurgery, orthopaedics and musculoskeletal surgery (performing over 3,000 orthopaedic surgeries annually), head and neck surgery, and plastic and reconstructive surgery. With a Multidisciplinary Tumour Board, over 134 specialist doctors, JCI accreditation, and a highly advanced Bone Marrow Transplant Unit, ACC Teynampet serves thousands of domestic and international patients annually.
