About Dr. Ashwin M Shah

Professional summary

Dr. Ashwin M Shah is a Senior Consultant in Radiation Oncology at Apollo Hospital, Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad, and has worked in the field for more than 31 years.

His listed radiation practice covers the conventional and conformal range — external beam radiotherapy, 3D conformal radiotherapy, intensity-modulated radiation therapy and image-guided radiation therapy — together with the focused techniques used for smaller, well-defined targets: stereotactic body radiation therapy, stereotactic radiosurgery and CyberKnife radiosurgery. He also performs intraoperative radiation therapy.

Brachytherapy is a distinct strand of his work, covering both intracavitary and interstitial placement. After MBBS, MD (Radiotherapy) and DNB (Radiotherapy), he completed a Fellowship in Brachytherapy through a collaborative programme involving Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and Apollo Hospitals, with training exposure at Tata Memorial Hospital and the Gujarat Cancer Research Institute. He also trained for a year at S.V. Medical College, Tirupati, through RIMS Hospital, and holds the FIRO national fellowship of the Indian Association of Radiation Oncologists.

Before Apollo Health City in Jubilee Hills, Dr. Shah was associated with KIMS Hospital and Yashoda Hospitals in Hyderabad, the Indo-American Cancer Hospital and Research Institute, Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences, Basavatarakam Indo-American Cancer Hospital, and Government General Hospital in Tirupati.

He has authored and co-authored peer-reviewed publications on chemoradiotherapy in oesophageal and cervical cancers, hypofractionated radiation outcomes, and brachytherapy for cervical and endometrial cancers, alongside studies on brain metastases, breast cancer and prostate cancer, radiation technique comparisons across IMRT, 3D conformal radiotherapy and IGRT, and concurrent chemoradiation versus radiation alone in solid tumours. He is a member of ASTRO and of the Indian Association of Radiation Oncologists across all chapters.

Hyderabad, India

  • Joint Commission International Gold Seal of Approval
  • NABH Accredited — Patient Safety & Quality of Care

Apollo Hospital, Jubilee Hills has been a Hyderabad landmark since 1988: 550 beds, JCI and NABH, a radiation department directed by a consultant whose name is asked for across Telangana. IMRT, IGRT, SRS and SBRT are everyday. Brachytherapy fellowship sits on the same floor. Fly to Hyderabad for that named list, not for a city you have never seen. Peer review before the ticket.

Consultation preparation

  • Operative notes, prior systemic therapy and any previous radiation plan, including dose and volumes if available.
  • A named clinical question: curative, adjuvant, salvage or symptom control.

Questions to ask

  • Where will simulation and daily treatment take place, and is that the same campus as the consultation?
  • Which technique is planned, and why not an alternative already documented on GAF’s cost guides?
  • Who owns follow-up after you return home, and what is sent back to the referring team?
  • What is the written estimate for the planned course — separate from any consultation fee?

Initially I was very hesitant what to do, where to go for the treatment of my father who was suffering with prostate cancer. Thanks to google, I came into touch with Gaf Healthcare. They have arranged everything, starting from treatment plan, video consultation, airport pickup, to surgery and following up. My father was operated in Sahyadri Pune, robotic prostatectomy was done. Now he is fine.
