Career Profile

Dr. Shishir Seth is an expert in managing and treating all types of blood-related disorders. This includes conditions such as anaemia and its related variants, like sickle cell or aplastic anaemia, and more severe complications like lymphoma, bone marrow and other associated blood cancers. As such, he is also highly experienced in procedures such as bone marrow or stem cell transplantation.

It is important to note that haemato-oncologists are specialists. Subsequently, they may not be the first point of contact when the initial symptoms of a potential blood-related condition manifest. However, upon confirming the underlying cause, medical professionals always refer patients to experts such as Dr. Seth.

Dr. Seth’s recognition as one of the best haemato-oncologists in Delhi can be attributed to his experience with advanced medical procedures in both a diagnostic and surgical capacity. For instance, when he needs to determine the nature of any unusual bumps or swelling, he conducts a fine needle aspiration cytology. The process is minimally invasive and causes barely any discomfort to the patient.

Concurrently, when treating patients with advanced bone marrow diseases or those who have undergone recent cancer treatment, Dr Shishir can perform a stem cell transplantation to restore healthy red blood cell production in the related area. Conversely, for individuals suffering from eosinophilia (a blood disorder characterised by elevated white blood cell count due to infections, allergies or cancer), he can design a treatment outline based on low-dosage corticosteroids or Interferon (IFN) Alpha-Blockers.

This dedicated approach to patient care, coupled with his vast clinical experience, has made Dr Shishir Seth one of the most sought-after doctors for treating blood-related conditions in Delhi.
