Dr. Ashu Shah
Founder
Ashu Shah Cancer Foundation[ASCF]
The challenge that faces any doctor is to treat a patient’s illness. That’s obvious. The greatest challenge is to treat their illness and to make sure their mental strength remains intact.
It is extremely fulfilling to know that I have successfully contributed in every space in cancer care but my biggest blessing has been the privilege bestowed upon me by the almighty to reach out to over 2000 underprivileged people to whom I have been blessed give free cancer treatment.
ASC Foundation is a non Government organization working tirelessly among the marginalized people providing support, financial and otherwise, to the people especially children affected by cancer. It has been and continues to be the beacon of hope for thousands of underprivileged cancer patients.
We Understand so we care. Our message is small but important. Let’s overcome cancer. We have resolved to counter this deadly disease among children, adults, elderly, and aged patients.
We have pledged to serve. At ASC Foundation, we are driven by the earnest desire to serve people. We want to raise the bar of cancer care in the country and draw the attention of the government and policymakers to develop a comprehensive healthcare system that will take care of a patient in the best interest and thus not heal him but extricate his intense emotional and psychological state.
Cancer is the third most common cause of death worldwide (WHO data ) and the incidence is increasing rapidly. It is estimated that more than 10 million people are diagnosed with cancer each year.
To reduce the risks of cancer we need to know two strategies.
1. Risk factors and not to avoid subtle signs of cancer.
2. Early detection and awareness: Early detection is the hallmark to cure and awareness the weapon to fight Cancer.
Today, cancer is a heterogeneous disease that requires
multidisciplinary team approach.
I am no bird; and no net ensnares me; I am a free
human being with an independent will.
Charlotte Bronte, Jane Eyre
