About Dr. Naveen Sanchety
He trained through the DNB pathway, first in general surgery at Command Hospital, Panchkula, then specifically in oncosurgery at Army Hospital Research & Referral in Delhi, and rounded things off with a stint learning robotic oncosurgery through Cambridge Medical Robotics in the UK. Before Sarvodaya, he moved through some heavyweight names in Delhi NCR cancer care: Indraprastha Apollo, Metro Group, Paras Cancer Centre, building up the kind of case volume that makes breast cancer surgery, in particular, something he’s genuinely well-versed in.
He’s also stayed active in research alongside the surgical work, with published pieces ranging from breast cancer imaging to rare facial reconstruction cases, and he sits on the editorial board of the Asian Journal of Oncology.

Patient Experience & Approach
Cancer surgery consults come loaded with fear, and Dr. Sanchety’s reputation is built on cutting through that with a plan rather than platitudes. He puts a lot of weight on getting the diagnostic workup right before touching a scalpel, since a rushed decision at that stage can undo everything later. For breast and gynaecological cancer patients especially, he tends to walk them through what’s known internationally as best practice, rather than a one-size-fits-all script, and takes time explaining why a particular surgical approach fits their specific case.
