How to Choose the Right Oncologist in HITEC City

  • 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
