HCG Cancer Centre Kolkata – Comprehensive Oncology Hospital in Eastern India
About The Hospital
HCG Cancer Centre Kolkata
16 Canal South Road, Beliaghata, Kolkata – 700 015, West Bengal, India
HCG Cancer Centre Kolkata is part of the HCG (HealthCare Global Enterprises) network — India's largest dedicated cancer care network, operating over 40 comprehensive cancer centres across the country. The Kolkata facility brings HCG's world-class oncology protocols to eastern India, providing a full spectrum of cancer treatment under one roof to patients from West Bengal, Odisha, Assam, North East India, Bangladesh and Nepal.
The centre's 90-bed capacity belies its clinical depth. The radiation oncology department is equipped with a modern linear accelerator (LINAC) system capable of delivering intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) — techniques that precisely target tumours while sparing surrounding healthy tissue. The surgical oncology team performs complex cancer resections across sites including breast, colorectal, gynaecological, head-and-neck and soft tissue tumours.
Medical oncology covers the full range of systemic treatments: conventional chemotherapy, targeted therapy (including biologics and small-molecule inhibitors), immunotherapy (checkpoint inhibitors) and hormonal therapy. The bone marrow transplant (BMT) unit offers autologous and allogeneic transplantation for haematological cancers including leukaemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma.
Nuclear medicine and PET-CT imaging are integral to the diagnostic and staging workflow, enabling precise tumour characterisation and treatment response assessment. NABH and NABL accreditations certify that clinical and laboratory quality is maintained at national benchmarks.
For patients from Bangladesh and Nepal — who represent a large proportion of the hospital's international volume — HCG Cancer Centre Kolkata offers proximity, cultural familiarity, Bengali-language support and visa facilitation services that make it the most accessible dedicated cancer centre in the eastern India region.
