Apollo Cancer Centres in Vanagaram has introduced 'Apollo Nambikkai', a cancer survivorship support community aimed at connecting, informing, and supporting cancer survivors and caregivers after active treatment. The program is part of a Cancer Survivors Programme, which brought together around 100 survivors and caregivers to acknowledge the ongoing challenges following treatment.
The community will initially operate within Apollo Cancer Centres, Vanagaram, but will soon expand to all units. The initiative will provide members with expert sessions, survivor interactions, nutritional and lifestyle guidance, psychological well-being support, webinars, and meet-ups via a dedicated WhatsApp community. The launch event was attended by the head of the medical oncology department, Suresh, comedian and actor Badava Gopi, CBO John Chandy from Apollo Hospitals, and Kaarthik Ramamurthy, COO of Apollo Speciality Hospitals, Vanagaram.
