Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing in.
Your father needs to see an onco hematologist. You can consult Dr VP Choudhary at Sunflag Hospital in Faridabad. The hematology departments at AIIMS and CMC Vellore are also very good.
Let me know if I can address any more questions.

Hi XXXXXXX
I think we should be looking to go to the best doctors available. I personally dont know anyone in XXXXXXX or Artemis. Dr PK XXXXXXX is a known hematologist in Apollo Cancer Centre, New Delhi A hematoncologist would be a better option than a medical oncologist.
