A surgeon who believes you deserve to understand your own care

“The goal isn’t just to operate well — it’s to make sure you know exactly what’s happening and why.”

I am a urological surgeon with specialised training in uro-oncology — the treatment of cancers affecting the urinary tract and male reproductive system. My practice focuses on robotic and minimally invasive surgery for prostate, kidney, bladder, penile, and testicular cancers.

I trained in General Surgery at JIPMER, Puducherry — one of India’s premier medical institutions — before completing my MCh in Urology at KEM Hospital Mumbai, where I graduated third in the university and received the Kiran Patwardhan Gold Medal. I subsequently obtained the MRCS from the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh.

I believe that a well-informed patient makes better decisions about their care. This website exists to help you understand your diagnosis, know what questions to ask, and approach your treatment with clarity rather than fear.

Understanding urological cancers and conditions

A diagnosis can feel overwhelming. Each condition below is explained in plain language — what it is, how it is detected, and what treatment typically involves. Click any card to read more.

💧
Uro-Oncology
Bladder Cancer
Often presents with blood in the urine. Treatment ranges from endoscopic surgery and BCG therapy to robotic cystectomy depending on the stage.

Uro-Oncology
Kidney Cancer
Renal cell carcinoma is increasingly detected incidentally on scans. Robotic partial nephrectomy allows tumour removal while preserving the kidney.

⚕️
Uro-Oncology
Testicular Cancer
The most curable of all solid tumours when caught early. Affects younger men and is highly responsive to treatment.

🔬
Uro-Oncology · Rare
Penile Cancer
A rare malignancy requiring highly specialised surgical expertise. Lymph node management is a critical part of treatment planning.

🔭
Uro-Oncology
Upper Tract Cancers
Cancers of the renal pelvis and ureter. Related to bladder cancer biology but require different surgical planning.

Oncology · Endocrine
Adrenal Tumours
Adrenal masses may be functional or malignant. Minimally invasive adrenalectomy is the standard approach for most cases.

Benign · Very Common
BPH — Enlarged Prostate
Benign prostatic hyperplasia affects most men over 60. Effective treatments range from medications to minimally invasive surgical procedures.

Transplant Surgery
Renal Transplant
Kidney transplantation is the gold standard treatment for end-stage renal disease, offering better quality of life and survival over long-term dialysis. Involves living or deceased donor options with lifelong follow-up care.

What is robotic surgery — and why does it matter for your cancer?

Robotic surgery instruments
Robotic Surgery · Precision at the microscale
01

Smaller incisions, faster recovery

Robotic surgery uses 4–5 keyhole incisions instead of a large open cut. Most patients walk the next day and go home in 2–3 days rather than 7–10.

02

10× magnified, tremor-free precision

The surgeon controls robotic arms from a console with a 3D view magnified up to 10 times. This precision matters enormously when operating near delicate nerves.

03

Better cancer outcomes

For prostate cancer, robotic surgery is associated with lower rates of positive surgical margins — meaning cleaner cancer removal — compared to open surgery.

04

Nerve-sparing when possible

Robotic precision allows nerve bundles controlling continence and sexual function to be carefully identified and preserved in appropriate patients.

Active research interests include surgical margin outcomes in robotic prostatectomy, evidence-based approaches to urological cancer management, and survival outcomes in urological malignancies.

Ongoing Research
MIRAGE-RP: Posterolateral Sector Risk Score for Positive Surgical Margins in Robotic Prostatectomy
A retrospective cohort study using mpMRI, PSMA PET, and biopsy data to derive a pre-operative risk score predicting surgical margin positivity in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.
