Dr.Ramanan is rated as no.1 in chennai as medical oncologist. If you have cancer you are very unfortunate. if you don't have insurance you are even more unfortunate. Dr.ramanan will treat you at kumaran hospital if you dont have insurance. thats the very sad part. there is no proper system of appointment at room 3 oncology section. you have to fall over one another to submit your file. the doctors are ready to listen if you tell them. but somehow the operations are highly uncomfortable. the system is bad.they have to streamline the system. the management is not ready to do it how ever. the hospital is not superfine.but ok.manageable.
