A cancer specialist is called an oncologist. We consulted one at a top specialty hospital for my relative, and they have different types like medical, surgical, and radiation oncologists. Ask your primary doctor to refer you to the right one.

Haan na, these medical names are a bit tricky, but they are called Oncologists. Medical oncologist gives medicines, and surgical oncologist does the operations. It's best to show a good specialist directly if there is any doubt.
