नेपालमा क्यान्सरको उपचार र 'सेकाइ'का डाक्टर

म क्यान्सर रोग र त्यसको उपचारको विषय - 'अँकोलोजी' मा स्नातकोतर गर्दै गरेको डाक्टर बिद्यार्थी हुँ ।
अहिले भरतपुर स्थित वि पि कोइराला मेमोरियल क्यान्सर अस्पतालमा कार्यरत छु । 
यहाँ हरेक दिन २०० जना क्यान्सरका बिरामी हाम्रो ओपिडीमा आउनुहुन्छ र झन्डै २५० जना बिरामीको रेडियोथेरापी हुन्छ ।
