About Dr S Krishnamurthi Centre for Research and Education in Cancer

Dr S Krishnamurthi Centre for Research and Education in Cancer is a private institution in Cachar, Assam, established in 2019. Campusbells lists it under Nursing.

In 1992, cancer care was a distant dream for the people of Barak Valley. The only cancer hospital was in Guwahati, far beyond reach for many. Patients traveled long distances, often too late, while others had no choice but to suffer. A group of citizens refused to accept this reality. They saw the struggle. They felt the pain. And they chose to act. This vision gave birth to the Cachar Cancer Hospital Society—a commitment to spread awareness, build a hospital, and create a space where no one is denied care. What started as a dream became a mission—one that would change thousands of lives.

We are a non-profit hospital that provides comprehensive cancer care to people in need – especially the underserved – through prevention, treatment, palliation, education and research.

We aim to become a state of the art cancer centre that will ensure that no individual develops a cancer that can be prevented, that no patient is denied appropriate cancer treatment for want of resources, that no patient dies in agony and indignity and that no family suffers treatment induced poverty and grief.
