Dr. Sumit Kumar Gaur

Dr. Sumit Kumar Gaur is a Senior Consultant in Ear, Nose, and Throat surgery at Apollo Hospitals, Bannerghatta Road, Bengaluru. With over 16 years of experience, he has built his practice around two areas that demand both precision and compassion — hearing rehabilitation through cochlear implantation, and advanced surgical management of complex sinus and nasal disorders. Patients and families who come to him often carry long histories of difficult symptoms, and he understands what it means to finally find answers.

Dr. Gaur holds an MBBS and a Master of Surgery in Otorhinolaryngology (MS ENT), followed by a focused Fellowship in Cochlear Implantation — a credential that placed him at the cutting edge of hearing restoration surgery. This advanced training shaped his subspecialty interests in otology, rhinology, and the surgical care of both children and adults with complex ENT conditions. He is a member of the Karnataka Medical Council and the Cochlear Implant Group of India (CIGI), keeping him closely connected to the latest developments in his field.

What patients often notice about Dr. Gaur is his willingness to take time. Whether it is a child being assessed for a cochlear implant or an adult dealing with years of recurring sinusitis, he approaches every case methodically and explains the plan in terms that families can actually understand. His surgical work spans cochlear implant surgery, functional endoscopic sinus surgery, advanced middle ear and mastoid procedures, septoplasty, tonsillectomy, and more — a broad skillset built over a career at one of India's most trusted hospital networks.

For international patients seeking high-quality ENT care in India, Dr. Gaur represents a reassuring combination of specialised training, surgical experience, and the clinical infrastructure of Apollo Hospitals behind him. Gaf Healthcare works closely with his team to ensure a smooth journey from your first enquiry through to your procedure and follow-up care.
