Principal Director & Unit Head – Surgical Oncology

Dr. S. M. Shuaib Zaidi is a premier surgical oncologist with over 27 years of medical experience. He is internationally recognized for his expertise in robotic and minimally invasive cancer surgeries, particularly in the thoracic and head & neck regions. A visionary surgeon, he is credited with performing some of the first robotic lung and esophageal surgeries in North India, setting a global benchmark for precision in oncology.

Dr. S. M. Shuaib Zaidi is a distinguished alumnus of Delhi’s top medical institutions. His clinical philosophy revolves around “Organ and Nerve Preservation,” ensuring that cancer removal does not compromise the patient’s functional or cosmetic quality of life.

Elite Global Training: After completing his super-specialization (M.Ch) from the world-renowned Cancer Institute (WIA), Chennai, he pursued advanced international fellowships. He earned a Fellowship in Advanced Thoracic Oncology & VATS from Japan and a Fellowship in Robotic Surgery from IRCAD, France, making him one of the most technically sound robotic surgeons in the country.
Technological Trailblazer: In 2011, Dr. Zaidi made medical history in Delhi by performing the first-ever Robotic Esophagectomy (for esophageal cancer) and Robotic Lobectomy (for lung cancer), paving the way for robotic dominance in thoracic care.
Surgical Innovation: He developed a globally recognized “Radical Neck Dissection” technique that specifically preserves the marginal mandibular nerve. This innovation ensures that patients undergoing head and neck surgery maintain natural facial expressions and symmetry.
Academic Mentor: As a National Board-certified teacher, he has mentored hundreds of young surgeons in DNB Surgical Oncology, contributing significantly to the future of cancer care in India.

Dr. Zaidi specializes in “Minimal Impact” oncology, treating complex tumors through keyhole and robotic-assisted methods.
