Dr. Vishnu Hari
Experience: 9+ years
Sarvodaya Hospital, Sector 8, Faridabad
Faridabad, India
Introduction
Dr. Vishnu Hari runs Medical Oncology as Associate Director & Head (Unit I) at Sarvodaya — the chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted drug side of cancer care, as opposed to the surgical or radiation side. His patients cover a lot of ground: leukemia, breast cancer, and some of the rarer hereditary cancer syndromes that most oncologists see maybe once in a career.
About Dr. Vishnu Hari
Dr. Vishnu Hari trained entirely in Kerala; first did his MBBS and MD in Internal Medicine, both at Government Medical College, Calicut. Then he went to the Regional Cancer Centre in Trivandrum for his DM in Medical Oncology, which is one of the older, more established cancer institutes in the country. He actually stayed on there afterward as Assistant Professor for a while, so teaching and clinical work overlapped early in his career.
Before joining Sarvodaya, he worked as a consultant at Rajagiri Hospital in Cochin, and then at Fortis Memorial Research Institute in Gurgaon, so he’s seen cancer care both in Kerala’s more academic setting and in Delhi NCR’s high-volume private hospital world, which is a pretty different pace and patient mix.

Patient Experience & Approach
Nobody walks into a cancer diagnosis feeling clear-headed, and patients keep bringing up how Dr. Vishnu Hari manages to explain the confusing stuff biopsy reports, scan results, what a chemo cycle actually involves without burying them in medical terms. What stands out is he doesn’t seem to run a one-size-fits-all playbook; the rarer cases especially get treated like the individual situations they are. And apparently he’s patient even when the same question comes up three or four times, which happens a lot when families are scared.
