September 1, 2025

For 17 years, the North East Cancer Hospital and Research Institute (NECHRI) has been a trusted name in cancer treatment in Northeast India. Established as the first private cancer hospital in the Northeast, NECHRI has brought world-class oncology services to Assam and beyond, combining advanced medical technology with compassionate care.
Compassion at the Core
At NECHRI, every patient is treated as more than just a case. With a multidisciplinary team of oncologists, surgeons, radiologists, pathologists, and nurses, the hospital ensures personalized cancer care. From chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy to radiation oncology and surgical oncology, patients receive treatment that prioritizes both effectiveness and quality of life.
Cutting-Edge Facilities in Cancer Care
NECHRI is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities for cancer diagnosis and treatment. Services include PET-CT scans, digital mammography, ultrasound with Doppler, brachytherapy, and advanced radiation therapy like IMRT and IGRT. These technologies enable early detection and precise treatment, making NECHRI one of the best cancer hospitals in Assam.
Cancer Research and Collaborations
Beyond treatment, NECHRI is committed to advancing cancer research in Northeast India. Through collaborations with ICMR, Tezpur University, IIT Guwahati, and Down Town University, the hospital is contributing to breakthroughs in oral cancer, breast cancer, and biomarker research. These partnerships ensure patients in the region benefit from the latest medical innovations.
Cancer Awareness and Screening Camps
Recognizing the importance of prevention and early detection, NECHRI regularly organizes cancer awareness programs and free screening camps across Assam and other north-eastern states. These community initiatives bring vital healthcare to remote areas, helping save lives through early diagnosis and timely treatment.
Accessible and Affordable Cancer Treatment
To make healthcare accessible, NECHRI is empanelled under several state government health schemes in Assam, Meghalaya, Arunachal Pradesh, and Nagaland. The hospital also works with leading insurance companies, ensuring that affordable cancer treatment in Northeast India is a reality for all.
A Future of Care and Commitment

For 17 years, NECHRI has been more than just a hospital, it has been a place of hope, healing, and commitment. As it moves forward, NECHRI remains dedicated to ensuring that cancer is not a fear but a challenge that can be overcome.
