Expert Care by Dr. Rajib Bhattacharjee — Leading Consultant Medical Oncologist in Kolkata | One of the Best Cancer Doctors in Kolkata
Multiple Myeloma is a type of blood cancer that begins in the plasma cells — a kind of white blood cell found in the bone marrow. These plasma cells normally produce antibodies to fight infections. However, in Multiple Myeloma, the cancerous plasma cells grow uncontrollably, crowding out healthy cells and producing abnormal proteins that can damage bones, kidneys, and the immune system. With more than 10 years of dedicated experience in Medical Oncology, Dr. Rajib Bhattacharjee is recognized as one of the Best Oncologists in Kolkata for the diagnosis and treatment of Multiple Myeloma. His expertise ensures accurate staging, personalized treatment planning, and advanced, evidence-based therapies for improved patient outcomes.
