About Dr. Mathan Mohan
Dr. Mathan Mohan is an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon and Head & Neck Surgical Oncologist based in Chennai, with over two decades of experience. His practice spans a wide range — from complex oral cancer surgeries and jaw reconstruction to dental implants and cleft lip and palate corrections. Patients and families often describe him as someone who takes time to explain things clearly, which matters enormously when facing a difficult diagnosis or a major procedure.
Dr. Mohan's training journey reflects a deep commitment to his craft. He completed his BDS from Rajah Muthiah Dental College and went on to earn his MDS in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. Over the years, he added several prestigious fellowships — including a fellowship in Head and Neck Surgical Oncology from Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences and board certification from the Indian Board of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. A milestone in his training was his certification in Navigational Surgery from Hannover Medical School in Germany, which sharpened his ability to perform highly precise surgical procedures.
Across Chennai, Dr. Mohan serves as a Visiting Consultant at several well-regarded hospitals — including Rela Hospital, Apollo Hospital Vanagaram, and Hindu Mission Hospital. Beyond his clinical work, he serves as Dean at Karpaga Vinayaga Institute of Dental Sciences, where he plays an active role in shaping the next generation of dental and maxillofacial surgeons. This dual role keeps him grounded in both the science and the human side of medicine.
For international patients, Dr. Mohan represents a rare combination: subspecialty depth in head and neck oncology, hands-on experience with reconstructive and facial plastic procedures, and the academic rigour of someone who teaches what he practises. Whether you are travelling from the Gulf, Africa, or South Asia, GAF Healthcare can help you connect with Dr. Mohan and plan your care from start to finish.
