Dr. Shiva Kumar Uppala, one of the best Cancer Specialist Doctors in the country, has performed more than 500 surgeries till now, is an experienced surgical oncologist as well as a consultant. He is an Oncology Surgeon and Cancer Specialist with a specialization in minimal access surgical techniques. In his opinion, a patient needs to be treated as a whole rather than treating organ specific. Surgeon’s perspective should be to treat the patient as a whole and not just to treat a specific organ. The surgeon should decide treatment plan based on the patient’s age, gender, socioeconomic status, side effects noticed and individual treatment plans to each patient based on their needs. He strongly believes that the same treatment plan will not work for every patient. Each patient needs individual assessment and treatment plans.
