BioDr.Niranjan is a nephrologist (specialist in kidney diseases) with specific interests in the care of cancer patients with kidney disease (Onconephrology), high blood pressure (Hypertension) and the prevention of kidney disease.
A graduate of Kilpauk Medical College, India, he completed his medical residencies in the UK and at the University of Connecticut, where he served as Chief Medical Resident and a Nephrology Fellow.

He has facilitated screenings at inner-city community events and minority places of worship, demonstrating his commitment to reaching diverse populations. Over the last five years, he has conducted kidney disease screening camps across Southern India (most recently in June 2024), screening over 500 patients in rural areas using the KEEP template.
At Stanford, Dr.Niranjan sees patients at multiple locations on different days of the week - at the Kidney Clinic, Hypertension Center and Onconephrology clinics catering to different patient populations - all at the 900 Blake Wilbur building location. He also has office hours twice monthly at the Stanford HealthCare Emeryville campus. He is currently faculty at Stanford University School Of Medicine and teaches medical students, residents and fellowship trainees both at bedside and in didactic settings.

He holds an administrative title of Director of Community Partnerships in the Division of Nephrology at Stanford Department of Medicine.
Dr.Niranjan is fluent in conversational Tamil, one of the oldest spoken languages in the world. He loves the outdoors and fitness - specifically hiking, bicycling and yoga. He has enjoyed traveling the world with his family. He is passionate about giving back to the community, and supports the education of underprivileged children in India through a US-based non-profit.
