Having been in the field for decades, Mr. Deshmukh has a keen eye for the exceptional, be it technology or infrastructure. Compromise is a deal-breaker for this perfectionist.

“There’s a huge need gap in terms of quality of treatment and service provided to patients in India. We must understand and empathise completely with what patients and their loved ones go through, when dealing with Cancer. My international exposure, experience and knowledge were driving forces behind me letting go of a secure job and working on Onco-Life, despite all the financial risks that accompanied it and people advising me against the idea. I’m glad to have made a difference to the healthcare industry and I pledge to continue doing so, through my lifetime.”

The lack of any kind of compromise is very visible here, the results are evidence enough.
