How to Choose the Right Oncologist in Kondapur

  • Know the three types: a medical oncologist treats with chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy, a surgical oncologist operates, and a radiation oncologist treats with radiotherapy. Most cancers need a team of all three.
  • Check the qualification: look for a DM or DrNB in Medical Oncology, an MCh or DrNB in Surgical Oncology, or an MD or DNB in Radiation Oncology.
  • Ask about the tumour board: a multidisciplinary tumour board, where specialists review each case together, helps plan the best sequence of treatment.
  • Look at the set-up: chemotherapy day care, radiotherapy, imaging, pathology and palliative care in one place make treatment easier.
  • Bring your records: biopsy reports, scans, blood tests and earlier treatment summaries make a first visit more useful.

Symptoms That Should Not Wait

Red-Flag Alert

See a doctor promptly for a lump that is growing, unexplained weight loss, blood in stool or cough, a sore that does not heal, persistent change in voice or bowel habit, or night sweats. Go to the emergency department for fever during chemotherapy, uncontrolled bleeding or severe pain.

When to See a Doctor in Hyderabad

For a new lump, persistent symptoms or an abnormal report, a first assessment with a general physician is a sensible start. At Suguna Clinic, Dr. Ram Kumar can examine you, arrange basic tests and refer you to an oncologist if needed. See also our guide on full body checkups by age. A referral is not compulsory, and you can see an oncologist directly if you already have a diagnosis.

An oncologist diagnoses and treats cancer. Medical oncologists use drug treatments, surgical oncologists operate and radiation oncologists use radiotherapy.

A medical oncologist treats cancer with chemotherapy, targeted drugs and immunotherapy. A surgical oncologist removes tumours and nearby tissue. Many patients see both.
What are the early warning signs of cancer?
A lump, unexplained weight loss, blood in stool, urine or cough, a sore that does not heal, persistent hoarseness or a change in bowel habit. These signs have many causes, but they need checking.
Which tests are used to diagnose cancer?
Imaging such as ultrasound, CT, MRI or PET-CT, blood tests and a biopsy examined by a pathologist. The biopsy confirms the diagnosis.
