About Dr. Ashwani Kumar

Dr. Ashwani Kumar is an ENT specialist based at Indraprastha Apollo Hospital in New Delhi, bringing over 13 years of focused experience in ear, nose, and throat care. He holds an MBBS and a DNB in Otorhinolaryngology — a postgraduate qualification that reflects rigorous clinical training across the full breadth of the specialty. Over the years, he has built a reputation for handling both everyday ENT concerns and complex cases that require careful surgical judgment.

His surgical work spans a wide range, from functional endoscopic sinus surgery and septoplasty to cochlear implant procedures for patients living with significant hearing loss. He also manages chronic middle ear disease, laryngeal conditions, and salivary gland disorders — areas that often require a steady hand and an individualized approach. Patients referred for head and neck-related care benefit from his experience with selective neck dissection and related procedures.

What patients and families often mention is how approachable Dr. Kumar is. He takes time to explain what is happening, what a procedure involves, and what recovery looks like — without rushing through the conversation. That clarity matters, especially when someone is traveling from another country and navigating an unfamiliar healthcare system. He consults in both English and Hindi, making communication straightforward for a wide range of patients.

For international patients considering ENT treatment in India, Dr. Kumar's base at Indraprastha Apollo Hospital offers the added reassurance of a well-established tertiary care facility with strong infrastructure for pre- and post-operative support. Whether you are seeking a second opinion, planning a surgical procedure, or managing a long-standing ENT condition, Gaf Healthcare can help you connect with Dr. Kumar and coordinate your care from start to finish.
