Care

Compassionate, Comprehensive, Accessible and Advanced Cancer Care

As one of its flagship healthcare initiatives, Excel Healthcare is developing a 75-bed comprehensive cancer care institution at Sooriyur, Tiruchirappalli.

The initiative is designed to bring advanced oncology services closer to patients and families across Central Tamil Nadu and surrounding regions, reducing the need for long-distance travel to access specialised cancer treatment.

The institution will offer integrated cancer diagnosis, radiation oncology, medical oncology, surgical oncology and supportive care through advanced clinical infrastructure, modern medical technology and a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals.

Operations are expected to commence by June 2027.

Our Story

From Community Service to a Regional Cancer Care Mission

Rooted in the Thanjavur and Tiruchirappalli region of Tamil Nadu, Excel Healthcare’s journey began with a commitment to community health and social development. Over time, this purpose evolved into a broader platform addressing preventive healthcare, public health support, environmental sustainability and access to advanced medical treatment.

The comprehensive cancer care initiative emerged from a deeply personal understanding of the challenges faced by families when specialised oncology services are not available closer to home.

After witnessing close family members travel approximately 300 to 350 kilometres from Tiruchirappalli to Chennai for cancer diagnosis and treatment, Mr. M. Muruganandam, Chairman of Excel Group of Companies and Director of Sughavazhvu Healthcare, recognised the urgent need to strengthen cancer care access within the region.

This experience became the foundation of a larger institutional mission: to help ensure that distance, affordability and limited local access do not prevent patients from receiving timely and appropriate cancer care.

Today, Excel Healthcare is translating this vision into reality through the development of a comprehensive cancer care institution at Sooriyur, Tiruchirappalli. Supporting this mission, Sughavazhvu Healthcare, a Section 8 not-for-profit entity under Excel Group, mobilizes CSR and philanthropic support for critical oncology equipment.

Together, the initiative seeks to bring compassionate, comprehensive and accessible cancer care closer to patients and families across Central Tamil Nadu and surrounding regions.

Approach

Our Care and Community Philosophy

Compassion

Every individual and family deserves empathy, respect and sensitivity throughout their healthcare journey.

01

Accessibility

Healthcare and preventive services should be brought within reach of communities that may otherwise face financial, geographic or social barriers.

02

Dignity

Every person must be treated with dignity, irrespective of their economic or social circumstances.

03

Prevention

Early awareness, regular screening and timely intervention can improve health outcomes and reduce avoidable suffering.

04

Accountability

Every initiative should be supported by responsible planning, transparent governance and measurable community impact.

05

Sustainability

Healthcare progress must be supported by long-term institutional, social and environmental responsibility.

06

Our Guiding Philosophy

Keep Going. Keep Doing. Keep Giving.

This philosophy reflects our commitment to purposeful action, responsible leadership and sustained service to communities.

At Excel Healthcare, we believe that meaningful healthcare extends beyond treatment. It encompasses prevention, community awareness, stronger public health systems, environmental responsibility and the creation of lasting access to quality care.

Supported by Sughavazhvu Healthcare, our Section 8 not-for-profit entity mobilising CSR and philanthropic support, we strive to build healthier communities where care is delivered with compassion, dignity, transparency and accountability.
