Dr. Shanu Jain

Dr Shanu Jain is a highly distinguished Senior Radiation Oncologist in Nagpur with 17 years of clinical experience.

She currently serves as a Consultant at the HCG NCHRI Cancer Care Centre in Binaki. Her clinical focus is the administration of highly advanced, computer-guided radiation protocols designed to permanently burn and destroy deep-seated tumors while preserving surrounding healthy organs.

Dr Jain possesses an incredibly elite, apex-tier oncological pedigree. To super-specialize, she completed a highly rigorous Fellowship in Gastrointestinal Radiation Oncology at the world-renowned Tata Memorial Hospital in Mumbai.

Demonstrating immense clinical authority, she further honed her advanced radiation mechanics by serving as a Senior Resident at both Tata Memorial Hospital and the prestigious Sanjay Gandhi Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences (SGPGIMS) in Lucknow.

Serving at these absolute apex-tier, highest-volume cancer research institutes provided Dr Jain with massive exposure to the most complex, treatment-resistant cancers in the country, guaranteeing her radiation protocols meet the absolute highest global standards.

She is a leading national academic authority, having won a Gold Medal for her research in recurrent head and neck cancers, and having presented her highly advanced protocols for metastatic rectal cancer at the prestigious American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) international conference.

Dr Jain is fluent in English, Hindi, and Marathi, allowing her to clearly communicate highly complex radiation physics and treatment plans to a diverse patient demographic across Maharashtra.
