Hi,
You can review your reports with an endocrinologist,however it is usually operated by a neurosugeon. I am sure that there are many endocrinologist in all the cities you mentioned.
In delhi there are so many government and private super-speciality hospitals
Government hospital - AIIMS, RML , Safdarjung
Private hospitals- Apollo,Max,Fortis,Medanta , Ganga Ram)and many more.
You will have to provide me with a lot of details about the size of the tumor, previous surgery (name of the surgery). If the tumour is big and is hampering your vision then repeat surgery is recommended. Usually the recurrence of Pituitary Adenoma is not very common but it may reoccur in a few people. I do not know have the idea about the cost of treatment. You will have to check with the hospitals but government hospitals will have nominal charges.
Feel free to ask more questions.
