Dr. B. S. Srinath is a renowned Surgical Oncologist, visionary healthcare leader, and humanitarian with over five decades of pioneering service in cancer care. A postgraduate from PGIMER Chandigarh and Fellow of the Royal Colleges of Surgeons of Edinburgh and Glasgow, he returned to India in 1983 with a mission to make high-quality cancer care accessible and affordable.
As Founder and Head of SSCHRC, Bengaluru, and Managing Trustee of SSCF (est. 2008), he has built a 500-bed, NABH-accredited comprehensive oncology centre, delivering advanced treatment through a cost-effective model that has benefitted over 90,000 patients, many through free or subsidized care.

Inaugurated in 2016 by the Hon'ble President of India, Shri Pranab Mukherjee, SSNCCPR today drives research in molecular oncology, rural health, and cancer epidemiology.
A passionate academician and mentor, Dr. Srinath has published widely in leading journals and continues to train future oncologists and researchers. Recognized with the Kannada Rajyotsava Award (2022), he embodies clinical excellence, equity in healthcare, and compassionate service.
