When I felt a lump in my breast, I acted quickly because of my
family history. After meeting a few surgeons, I chose Dr Jay Anam at
SSO. His calm, clear explanation and the way he described the S
Lympha technique gave me complete confidence. My surgery went
smoother than I expected. The entire team, including nurses,
physiotherapist, dietician and anaesthesia team, worked in perfect
coordination. I was discharged the next day feeling reassured.
Recovery has been steady and positive. I regained arm movement
early, and the exercises taught at SSO still help me every day. To
every woman reading this: do not delay your screening. Early action
truly matters. SSO gave me clarity, confidence and a fresh
beginning, and I am very grateful for that.

A chapter in your life, not the whole story. Yes, I am a cancer
survivor, and all I want to say is that cancer is just a chapter in
your life, not the whole story. This is my successful treatment
journey. On the night of 25 November, I suddenly developed a fever
and severe stomach pain. My BP was extremely high. I was admitted to
a nearby hospital’s ICU. After three days of BP monitoring and
multiple tests, they found a large cancerous cyst in my ovary. I was
shocked and started crying. I was discharged and consulted a cancer
surgeon. As advised, I did a PET scan. The report showed a huge
cyst, and the surgeon suggested chemotherapy first to shrink it. I
completed ten cycles of chemotherapy, but I collapsed physically and
mentally. According to the doctor, surgery was not possible, and the
chemo was also not helping. I was devastated. I then sought another
opinion and met Dr Sanket Mehta from SSO, Ghatkopar. The moment I
met him, he gave me positive energy. With full confidence, he told
me that surgery was 100 percent possible. I was so relieved. He is
truly godlike for me. The way he gave hope was unbelievable. He
removed all the affected organs through open surgery on 6 May, and
it was successful. I had some post-surgery complications, but I am
improving day by day. Thanks to Dr Sanket Mehta.

Watching my father fight cancer has shown me what true strength
looks like. We had the privilege of getting him treated by Dr.
Sanket Mehta and his team at the Specialty Surgical Oncology
hospital (SSO) at Ghatkopar. And we cannot express enough gratitude
for the care, compassion, and professionalism we experienced
throughout his treatment. What truly stood out was the human touch —
the way the entire team combined medical excellence with empathy. I
would wholeheartedly recommend Specialty Surgical Oncology hospital
and Dr. Sanket Mehta to anyone seeking cancer treatment. The
treatment and facilities at SSO are world-class. The hospital
maintains high standards of hygiene, efficiency, and patient care.
