Dr. Ashwani Kumar Sharma is a highly skilled surgical oncologist with over 18 years of experience. He specializes in advanced surgical techniques, including robotic surgery, for treating cancer patients.
In his practice, he frequently employs minimally invasive robotic surgery to tackle complex cancer cases involving the oesophagus, lung, stomach, pancreas, colorectal, urology, gynaecology, thyroid, and head and neck. This approach leverages advanced technology to ensure precision and promote faster recovery for patients.
He is proficient in performing surgeries such as video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), and specific breast cancer surgeries, among others.
Dr. Sharma holds an M.B.B.S., MS, and DNB, showcasing his extensive training in medicine and surgery. He is a lifetime member of several prestigious Indian professional organizations, including the Indian Association of Surgical Oncologists, the Endoscopic and Laparoscopic Surgeons of India, the Association of Surgeons of India, and the Clinical Robotic Surgery Association (CRSA). These memberships reflect his dedication to continuous learning and maintaining high standards in surgical oncology.
His contributions to the field have been recognized with various awards, including the Best Paper Award from Acta Scientific for his work on intraoperative fluid management in head and neck free flap reconstructive surgeries, which utilized the Pleth Variability Index (PVI).
He also received the Best Paper Award from the Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute and Research Centre (RGCIRC) for his comparative study on acoustic puncture assist devices for identifying the epidural space, published in the Indian Journal of Anaesthesia in 2016.
