Dr Kamrun Nahar Taniya

Dr. Kamrun Nahar Taniya is a Consultant specializing in Oncology, the medical field dedicated to the assessment and treatment of cancer. She holds an MBBS degree, BCS (Health) and an MD in Oncology from the National Institute of Cancer Research and Hospital, Mohakhali, Dhaka. Her specialty involves evaluating suspected or confirmed cancers, reviewing diagnostic findings and helping patients understand available treatment options based on their individual medical circumstances.

Cancer can affect different organs and may cause symptoms such as an unexplained lump, unusual bleeding, persistent pain, changes in bowel habits or unintended weight loss. These symptoms do not always indicate cancer, but persistent or unexplained changes deserve medical attention. Depending on the situation, investigations may include blood tests, imaging, biopsy or other procedures to establish a diagnosis and determine the extent of the disease.

Oncology care depends on the type of cancer, its stage and the patient's general health. Treatment may involve surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted medicines or a combination of approaches, depending on the diagnosis. Not every treatment is suitable for every patient. Discussing expected benefits, possible side effects, treatment duration and follow-up requirements can help patients and their families understand the care plan and prepare for the next steps.

Dr. Kamrun Nahar Taniya consults at Popular Diagnostic Center Ltd, Badda, Dhaka. Patients visiting for an oncology consultation can bring biopsy reports, imaging results, previous prescriptions and summaries of any treatment already received. Keeping medical documents organised can help the doctor review the case and discuss appropriate options. Patients should report new or worsening symptoms promptly and seek urgent medical care for severe complications rather than waiting for a routine appointment.
