Consultant Surgical Oncologist | HCG Malnad Cancer Hospital, Shimoga
I’m Dr. Deepak H. L, and for me, oncology isn’t just a profession—it’s a calling.
As a Consultant Surgical Oncologist at HCG Malnad Cancer Hospital in Shimoga, I’ve dedicated my career to walking beside patients and families as they navigate one of life’s most difficult journeys—cancer. With over eight years of hands-on experience, I specialize in performing complex cancer surgeries across various specialties including:
What sets my practice apart is a patient-first, multidisciplinary approach—each individual is more than their diagnosis. Every treatment plan I design is rooted in evidence-based medicine, tailored to their unique condition, and supported by a team of experts to ensure comprehensive care.
I strongly believe that quality cancer care should be accessible, which is why I’m deeply involved in rural outreach programs, cancer awareness drives, and early detection initiatives. Empowering people with knowledge is just as important to me as performing successful surgeries.
Whether it’s a first consultation, a second opinion, or long-term postoperative care—I’m here not just as a doctor, but as a partner in your healing journey.
