Obesity Increases Cancer Risk: Dr. Sanjay Verma on Prevention and Early Intervention

Obesity is more than a cosmetic concern—it’s a serious health issue that significantly increases the risk of several cancers, including breast, colon, endometrial, and pancreatic cancer.

Early recognition, sustained weight management, and timely medical intervention are key to reducing cancer risk and improving long-term health outcomes.

Here’s Dr. Sanjay Verma, Director – Minimal Access, GI & Bariatric Surgery, sharing insights on the critical connection between obesity and cancer risk.
