Oncologist | Oncology - Surgical Doctors in India

A surgeon who has special training in performing biopsies and other surgical procedures in cancer patients.

A surgical oncologist plays a vital role in providing multidisciplinary cancer care. They are trained to manage both simple and complex cases of primary and secondary cancer. Surgical oncologists have immense knowledge of cancer biology, imaging technologies, radiation therapy, and chemical and biological therapy.

A medical oncologist will treat your cancer with chemotherapy, hormone therapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy. A surgical oncologist uses surgery to remove tumors.

Surgery is often the main treatment for cancer. You might have it on its own or together with other treatments. But surgery isn't suitable for all types of cancer, or for all situations. Whether surgery is a treatment option for you depends on many factors like cancer type, size of cancer, location of the cancer, and general health conditions.
