Dr Yuganshu Gupta
About me
leadership for a new generation
I am Dr Yuganshu Gupta. I did my MBBS from Government Medical College and Rajindra Hospital, Patiala. Later I completed my MD in internal medicine from DMCH Ludhiana. I did my DM Medical Oncology from Gujarat cancer and Research institute which is amongst very few premier cancer institutes of the country and catering cancer patients since 1972.
I am a European certified Medical oncologist after clearing an exam of European Society of Medical Oncology. I am aware that cancer affects patients and their families. So I am dedicated to giving my patients the finest care possible and support them as they navigate their cancer journey with knowledge and empathy.
As I noticed that for chemotherapy there is dearth of a medical oncologist. Patients are either traveling long distance for every dose of chemotherapy or even are getting themselves treated from personals not qualified for giving chemotherapy. So I decided to dedicate my self to care of cancer patients of the region to which I belong.
What does medical oncologist mean?
The word “Oncologist” refers to doctors with specialized expertise in the treatment of cancer. As cancer specialists, we are your partners and friends in the battle against cancer. Medical Oncologists are doctors who specialize in the systemic therapy of cancer. We try to ensure that cancer is either permanently cured or controlled for as long as possible using treatments that have maximum benefit with minimum side-effects. Commonly used treatments in medical oncology include chemotherapy, targeted therapy, hormone therapy, and immunotherapy.
