Dr. Satish Nair

One of the best head and neck surgical oncologists in Bangalore, Dr Satish Nair, is an asset to the medical field. Lauded for his expertise in the area, Dr Satish treats cancers in the head and neck region, such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma, pituitary tumours, salivary gland tumours, throat cancer, thyroid cancer and tongue cancer.

Head and neck surgical oncologists are trained to spot the early signs of cancer in the neck and head area. Doctors such as Dr Nair specialise in performing reconstructive surgery, microsurgery and laser surgeries for head and neck lesions. In critical cases where a cancerous tumour is suspected, excellent skills and an experienced doctor like Dr S Nair are vital for a better outcome. Once the cancerous cells are removed, the surgeon would also try reconstructing the area around the organ affected.

A dedicated oncologist such as Dr Satish will take factors such as the patient’s health, age and location of the tumour before deciding on the mode of treatment. This can be chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy or radiation. In addition, doctors like Dr Nair are proficient in using a laser to remove the tumour and destroy the malignancy. These therapies ensure the cancer cells don’t divide and spread to other areas of the body (metastasis).  
With over 24 years in neck and head oncology, Dr Satish N is renowned as one of the best in his speciality. He says, "Medicines cure the disease, but only doctors can cure patients."
