With over 10+ years of specialised training and clinical experience, she offers comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic care for the entire spectrum of benign and malignant haematological disorders. Her expertise spans the management of acute and chronic leukaemias, Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin lymphomas, central nervous system lymphomas, multiple myeloma, and other plasma cell dyscrasias.
Dr. Akshatha’s academic journey is marked by excellence. She completed her MBBS and MD in General Medicine from Kasturba Medical College, Mangalore, followed by a Fellowship in Haematology-Oncology at Narayana Health City under RGUHS. She then pursued a DM in Clinical Haematology from the Institute of Haematology and Transfusion Medicine, Medical College Hospital, Kolkata.

Beyond malignant conditions, Dr. Akshatha provides specialised care for haemoglobinopathies such as thalassaemia and sickle cell anaemia, and expertly manages bleeding and clotting disorders, including haemophilia, von Willebrand disease, and platelet function disorders.
