Dr. Mahantesh Chandrashekhar Tapashetti

Dr Mahantesh Chandrashekhar Tapashetti is a highly distinguished and legendary ENT Surgeon in Dharwad with an incredible 49 years of clinical experience.

He currently serves as a Senior Consultant at the HCG Suchirayu Hospital in Hubli. His clinical focus is the execution of highly complex, microscopic surgeries to repair severe hearing loss and safely extract deep skull-base tumors.

During his tenure in Mumbai, he managed massive volumes of the most complex, treatment-resistant facial and airway traumas in the country, building a flawless surgical foundation.

Demonstrating immense technical authority, Dr Tapashetti is highly specialized in executing advanced Micro Ear Surgeries. Utilizing high-powered surgical microscopes, he physically reconstructs the tiny, shattered bones inside the middle ear to permanently restore a patient's natural hearing.

Furthermore, he is one of the rare ENT surgeons in the region capable of executing Transseptal Pituitary Tumour Surgeries. Instead of a neurosurgeon cutting open the patient's skull, Dr Tapashetti utilizes advanced endoscopic tools to navigate directly through the patient's nose, reaching the base of the brain to safely extract pituitary tumors.

With nearly a half-century of continuous surgical practice, Dr Tapashetti provides patients with a level of clinical wisdom, surgical precision, and diagnostic accuracy that is virtually unmatched in North Karnataka.

His command of English, Hindi, and Kannada reassures patients, making them comfortable enough to express their concerns freely.
