The Service

Thoughtful care for gastrointestinal cancers.

Gastrointestinal cancers affect different parts of the digestive system. Assessment considers the tumour site, extent of disease, investigation results and overall health to understand whether surgery may form part of a treatment plan.

Dr. Harish Kumar H’s documented practice includes complex gastrointestinal oncosurgery, with experience in open, laparoscopic and robotic approaches. Recommendations are individual and should follow discussion with the treating clinical team.
