The
Tata Memorial Hospital was initially commissioned by the Sir Dorabji Tata Trust
on 1941 as a center with enduring value and a mission for concern for the
Indian people. The Tata Memorial Hospital (TMH) was set up by the Sir Dorabji
Tata Trust in 1941. It was placed under the control of the Indian government’s
Ministry of Health in 1957. In 1962, Tata Memorial Hospital TMH began operating
under the government’s Department of Atomic Energy.
In
1966, TMH was merged with the Indian Cancer Research Institute and renamed the
Tata Memorial Centre (TMC). Tata Memorial Centre (TMC) has collaborations with
many cancer centres across India, among them, the Regional Cancer Centres at
Ahmedabad, Thiruvananthapuram, Nagpur, Gwalior and Hyderabad, the Civil
Hospital, Shillong and the Jorhat Hospital, Jorhat (Assam).
One
of the fields of specialization of this hospital is in the treatment of acute
lymphoblastic leukemia. Every year nearly 30,000 new patients visit the clinics
from all over India and other countries. Nearly 60% of these cancer patients receive
primary care at the Hospital of which over 75% are treated almost free of any
charges.
Over
900 to 1000 patients attend the OPD daily for medical advice or for follow-up
treatment. Nearly 25,000 patients visit the clinics each year, not only from
all over India but from neighboring countries as well.
The
