Dr. Vankam Aseesh Varma

Pediatric Surgeon

Dr. Vankam Aseesh Varma is a highly qualified Pediatric Surgeon at Dr. Mehta’s Hospitals, Chennai, holding an MCh in Paediatric Surgery, the highest surgical qualification in the specialty. His training spans the full breadth of paediatric surgical care, with focused expertise in gastrointestinal and urological surgery, thoracic surgery, neonatal surgery, and paediatric surgical oncology, making him one of Chennai’s comprehensive subspecialty paediatric surgeons.

Paediatric surgery demands a unique skill set that goes well beyond adult surgical training. Children’s anatomy, physiology, and healing responses differ significantly from adults, and congenital conditions presenting from birth require precise, experience-driven surgical correction. Dr. Aseesh Varma’s MCh qualification ensures he is trained to manage the most technically demanding paediatric surgical conditions, from correcting life-threatening anomalies in newborns to performing complex oncological resections in older children.

Available from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM Monday through Saturday at Dr. Mehta’s Hospitals, Dr. Vankam Aseesh Varma offers accessible, expert surgical consultations for families across Chennai seeking paediatric surgical opinions and interventions. His broad subspecialty coverage means most paediatric surgical needs can be addressed under the care of a single, highly trained specialist.
