About Dr Andrew Gaya
Dr Gaya qualified at St George's (University of London) where he was awarded a distinction and several academic prizes. He trained in Clinical Oncology at Imperial College and St Bartholomew's Hospital and subsequently undertook a Cancer Research UK MD Fellowship at University College London. He was a consultant clinical oncologist at Guy's and St Thomas' Hospitals for 15 years. He now works solely in the private sector
Dr Gaya treats all gastrointestinal tumours (e.g. oesophagus, stomach, liver, pancreas, colon, rectum, anus) using chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, biological therapies, and data from tumour genome analysis. Dr Gaya's main interests are in the areas of functional cancer imaging (Kings College, London), and combining immunotherapy with radiation treatment.
He is heavily involved with the implementation and usage of the latest radiotherapy techniques such as MRI guided radiotherapy (MRIdian - https://www.genesiscare.com/uk/mrl-hcp/), proton therapy and stereotactic body radiosurgery (gamma knife, cyberknife). He has published and peer-reviewed widely for international journals (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=Gaya+A). He is an active member of ASTRO (https://www.astro.org/), the Radiosurgery Society (http://therss.org/) and the International Stereotactic Radiosurgery Society (http://www.isrsy.org/en/). Dr Gaya is also interested in the introduction of advanced technology such as AI and machine learning to medicine and is a big supporter of Exponential Medicine (https://exponential.singularityu.org/medicine/) and the Singularity University programs.
Offering both drug-based and radiation-based therapies and close liaison with surgical and interventional radiology, he is a leading authority on the unique combination of multiple treatment modalities and personalised tumour molecular profiling into a treatment package for each patient.

Reviews
Dr Gaya has been treating me for 18 months now and I am very grateful he was recommended to me and took me on. He is empathetic, takes the time to explain things and always responds quickly to queries. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
I attended a follow up consultation with Dr Gaya yesterday during which he gave me my recent MRI and PET/CT scan results. As always, Dr Gaya spent time explaining his findings and action to be taken going forward. We also discussed my current state of health, my planned treatment by the Rheumatology Team and the impact the most recent Rituximab infusion is having. Dr Gaya is always very pleasant, asks relevant questions and is very clear about next steps in the short term whilst having plans for the longer term. I look forward to his encouraging consultations every two weeks. Dr Gaya’s calm, measured, patient manner reflects his professionalism and care towards his patients. He keeps me sane, especially in times of anxiousness !
It is always a pleasure discussing my health situation with Dr Gaya. He instils confidence and positivity into my well being and I am very grateful for that.
Nurse was great Office staff very helpful and accomodating
Throughout my cancer treatment, Dr. Gaya has continually offered top class care and support. Thankyou !
Very professional, warm and expert. Dr Gaya is a brilliant oncologist.
5 * overall. Cant say more. Always unrushed, forthcoming with advice and explanations. The confidence he is concerned on my behalf and open to anything he can possibly do to help me on this ‘journey’.
Kept me updated what was happening,and what to expect after treatment, if there was to be a follow up.
I have always found Dr A Gaya very honest direct and eager to give full information and explain all aspects of the consultation, symptoms, prognosis and outcome in all ways. I have always felt very comfortable with dr Gaya in all ways and he has always given me confidence and assurance throughout the 8 years since my treatment.
