Dr Asad Qureshi

Consultant Oncologist

Specialist in Upper GI and Colorectal Cancer

I am a Consultant Oncologist based at Guy’s Cancer Centre in London. I specialise in the treatment of cancer in the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract, including oesophagus, stomach, colon, rectum, anus and cancer of unknown primary.

I qualified in 2001 and completed my specialist training in London at a number of specialist cancer institutions, including St Bartholomew’s Hospital, Charing Cross Hospital, Guy’s Hospital and The Royal Marsden Hospital.

Dr Qureshi - With you on your cancer journey

Helping guide you through your cancer journey

Being diagnosed with cancer is always stressful, but making decisions about your treatment can often add to the stress. My aim is to guide you through this process, helping you make the right decisions, make the process as easy as possible for you and be with you step-by-step on your treatment journey.

In-person and remote options

I offer consultations at a number of Central London locations. If you aren’t able to make it to one of these locations I also offer remote consultations.

Need a Second Opinion?

There are several reasons why you may want to get a second opinion:

  • Peace of mind: You may have doubts or unanswered questions about your current treatment plan or diagnosis. A second opinion can give you the opportunity to ask questions and provide reassurance, help alleviate any doubts or concerns that you are getting the best possible care.

  • Exploring different treatment options: In some cases, you may want to explore different treatment options. A second opinion from a different doctor may provide additional treatment options or insights.

  • Dealing with complex or rare conditions: Some medical conditions are complex or rare, and it can be difficult for one doctor to have extensive experience in treating them. A second opinion from a specialist may be helpful in these cases.

  • Clarifying conflicting advice: Sometimes patients receive conflicting advice from different doctors, and a second opinion can help clarify the situation and provide a clearer path forward.

My second opinion service is available to patients seeking treatment in the UK and to international patients. As with all consultations, this can be in-person or remotely.

Treatments

“Dr Qureshi is a wonderful doctor. He told me everything I need to know about the medical condition itself, the treatment, the side-effects and what follow-up consultations will be required going forward. He also carefully monitored my progress during my treatment and patiently answered any questions I had.”
