Surgical Oncologist, Laparoscopic and Robotic Surgery Cancer Treatment Expert Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh

Mission and motto

Cancer surgery is unique in the sense that appropriate oncological principles need to be followed while performing it. I promise to perform the same with full diligenceCancer does not differentiate between the poor and rich. All classes get affected.
I cater to all classes of society, whether they are poor, middle class, or rich and will offer the same level of compassionate care to all strata irrespective of their affordability.
‍It is a myth that cancer surgery is maximally invasive and patients take a long time to recover. Minimally invasive cancer surgery (either through Robotic surgery or laparoscopic surgery) makesrecovery times shorter and patients resume routine activities quickly.
I was one of the pioneers in minimally invasive oncosurgery in Andhra Pradesh, and my mission is to offer this modality to all my patients. Cancer treatment/surgery is continuously evolving. I keep myself updated and offer the best possible treatment options to my patients.

With Warm Regards,
Dr. Karthik Chandra

Dr. Karthik Chandra is an exceptional doctor who truly stands out in the robotic surgery arena. I had many apprehensions and was delaying my surgery for a long time, but the confidence and honesty of this gentleman prompted me to take the leap. And I'm glad I did. Two weeks into surgery, and the recovery is far quicker than I expected. I'd recommend him to anyone seeking a caring and skilled medical professional.

My mother was Dr Kartik's patient at Apollo Hospitals, Health City, Vizag. We admitted her at Apollo on the advice of our family doctor. Dr. Kartik came across as a compassionate, unassuming, and highly professional person. He was very patient listening to us and addressing all our concerns, doubts. He facilitated smooth coordination with other specialists which resulted in an effective treatment for my mother. We are all extremely grateful to Dr. Kartik for this professional advice and guidance.

I wanted to share my experience with Dr. Karthik Chandra recently. Came to Vizag from the U.S for my dad's surgery. I met Dr. Karthik after the surgeon we previously consulted backed out, saying it's a high-risk surgery. Dr. Karthik is this wonderful human being so down to earth. His positive attitude raised our spirits. My dad's surgery went very successfully, and the post-op care was amazing as well. This would not have happened without Dr. Karthik. I will be forever indebted to him. Thanks a lot, Dr. Karthik.
