A specialist in precision oncology, Dr. Verma believes that no two cancers are alike, and neither should be their treatment. His approach goes beyond traditional protocols, using advanced molecular diagnostics and genomic testing to tailor therapy for each individual. This ensures better outcomes, fewer side effects, and more informed decision-making for patients and their families.

Dr. Verma’s medical training includes postgraduate training at premier institute of India, AIIMS, New Delhi followed by a prestigious fellowship in personalized cancer therapy from the MD Anderson Cancer Center (USA) — one of the world’s top cancer centers — and a specialist certification in Medical Oncology from the Royal College of Physicians (UK). He also holds a fellowship in cancer research, has authored over 40 scientific publications, and holds a U.S. patent in cancer therapeutics.

Throughout his career, Dr. Verma has led numerous clinical trials, set up some of India’s earliest molecular tumor boards, and advised on national policies for cancer research and treatment. As an educator and mentor, he has trained hundreds of oncologists in India on the principles of targeted and immunotherapy.
