Hyderabad 9th June, 2025: On the occasion of World Brain Tumour Day, Olive Hospital, a trusted name in healthcare and dedicated to better health outcomes and saving lives, is calling for increased public awareness, early intervention, and compassionate care for those affected by brain tumors, an often misunderstood and life-altering condition.
Brain tumors, both cancerous and non-cancerous, affect thousands of Indians annually. According to data from the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), more than 40,000 new brain tumor cases are detected each year in India, with many others going undetected as a result of nonspecific symptoms like recurring headaches, changes in vision, and memory loss.
Olive Hospital, a leading multispecialty healthcare institution in Hyderabad, has registered a 20% increase in brain tumor consultations in the last year alone. The hospital’s neurology and neurosurgery units are fully equipped with sophisticated MRI diagnostics, stereotactic surgical equipment, and a multidisciplinary care model comprising neuro-oncology, palliative care, and rehabilitation support.
“Brain tumors are deceptive; the symptoms do not always erupt in dramatic ways. Occasionally it begins with something as mundane as a persistent headache or an unexplained change in behavior. At Olive Hospital, we encourage individuals to pay attention to their bodies and get themselves checked early. An early detection not only enhances the quality of care, but it can even save a patient’s quality of life. Our aim is to not only cure the disease but to help patients and families through every step along their journey of treatment and healthcare, said Dr. Mohammed Mahmood Ali Senior Neurologist at Olive Hospital.
World Brain Tumor Day reminds us not only to remember the clinical nuances of brain tumors but also the emotional and psychological burden on families and patients. Olive Hospital highlights the need for timely neurological evaluation, especially for signs that were missed or overlooked.
Every year this day is observed on May 8th, and this year Olive Hospital is aiming to create a public awareness around the early indicators of brain tumors and promote regular check-ups for those at high risk. This initiative seeks to dispel misconceptions and make educational material widely available to communities that would otherwise not receive exposure to neuro-health literacy.
As a patient-first hospital, Olive Hospital reiterates its commitment to providing compassionate, state-of-the-art, and economical care to brain tumor patients in Telangana and beyond.
