Dr. Gonuguntla Hari Kishan is a Consultant Interventional Pulmonologist at Yashoda Hospitals, Secunderabad, and Director of the Interventional Pulmonology programme.

He is an experienced pulmonologist specialising in the diagnosis and management of respiratory diseases, with particular expertise in minimally invasive pulmonary procedures for both adults and children. His practice brings together advanced bronchoscopic techniques — endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS), cryobiopsy, airway stenting and pleuroscopy — with comprehensive medical management of asthma, COPD, tuberculosis, interstitial lung disease and sleep-related breathing disorders.

After earning his MD and DM in Pulmonary Medicine, he refined his interventional skills through clinical fellowships at Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University in Bangkok and the Respiratory Endoscopy unit of the National Cancer Centre, Tokyo, followed by European Respiratory Society certification in EBUS. He organised the first international conference and live workshop on EBUS and advanced lung cancer treatments at Yashoda Hospitals.
