An oncologist who reads the biology, and takes the time to explain it.
Dr Sneha Kommineni is a Consultant Medical Oncologist in South Bengaluru. She treats solid and blood cancers, with particular expertise in targeted therapy and precision oncology, and a reputation among her patients for unhurried, honest conversations.
Biography
Dr Sneha Kommineni is a Consultant Medical Oncologist who diagnoses and treats a wide range of cancers, with a focus on matching treatment to the biology of each patient's disease. She completed her MBBS at Siddhartha Medical College, Vijayawada, her MD at Pramukhswami Medical College under Sardar Patel University, Gujarat, and her DNB in Medical Oncology. She also holds the Specialty Certificate Examination (MRCP SCE) in Medical Oncology from the Royal College of Physicians, United Kingdom.
Her clinical philosophy rests on three ideas: every cancer is different; every treatment plan should be shaped by that difference; and the quality of life a person has during and after treatment matters as much as the treatment itself. Patients often describe her consultations as unhurried. She works hard to make sure every decision is understood, not simply accepted.

Clinical experience
Dr Sneha combines evidence-based oncology with individualised planning, taking into account the type and stage of the cancer, the patient's overall health, family circumstances and long-term goals. Where genomic findings are involved, she reviews the results with a multidisciplinary team, drawing on pathology, radiology, surgical oncology and radiation oncology as needed, so that the data becomes a practical, patient-centred plan.
