Dr. Adi Rakesh Kumar — Consultant Gastroenterologist in Hyderabad

Dr. Adi Rakesh Kumar is a Consultant Gastroenterologist, Therapeutic Endoscopist and Endosonologist at Yashoda Hospitals, Secunderabad, in Hyderabad, with more than 23 years of experience in gastroenterology and hepatobiliary medicine.

His list is short and specific. He performs ERCP and treats biliary strictures, chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cysts, and manages chronic liver disease, portal hypertension and severe gastroesophageal reflux disease.

His training is dated by year and was taken in two cities. He read MBBS at Osmania Medical College under NTR University of Health Sciences in Hyderabad between 1997 and 2003, took his MD in general medicine at Kakatiya Medical College in Warangal between 2004 and 2007, and returned to Osmania Medical College for his DM in gastroenterology between 2008 and 2011.

The entry after that sequence is what gives him the third title on his profile. In 2012 he completed a fellowship in advanced endoscopy in ERCP and EUS at the Institute of Advanced Endoscopy in Mumbai, and endosonology is named in his designation alongside therapeutic endoscopy.

His posts have all been in Hyderabad. He has been at Osmania General Hospital, Narayana Hrudayalaya Hospital, Apollo Hospitals and Gleneagles Global Hospital before his present post at Yashoda Hospitals in Secunderabad, so his whole career has been spent in the city he trained in, moving from the government teaching hospital into the private tertiary sector.
