Virtual consultations:
I am a consultant Gynaecological oncology surgeon at Nottingham University Hospital NHS Trust. I sub-specialise in gynaecological cancer surgery including uterine, ovarian, cervical and vulval cancers.
I received higher surgical training in managing gynaecological cancers from Cambridge University Hospitals and worked there briefly as a consultant before moving to Nottingham. I have received training in managing gynaecological conditions such as endometriosis, heavy menstrual bleeding, ovarian cysts, labial cysts, and cervical pre-cancer.
I have a keen interest in performing complex keyhole surgery in managing gynaecological cancers. I am a BSCCP certified colposcopist and have interest in managing cervical pre-cancer conditions and cervical HPV. I also have a keen interest in multi-disciplinary management of advanced ovarian cancers. I offer diagnostics services such as hysteroscopy for women with menstrual problems such as post-menopausal and peri-menopausal bleeding.
I have keen interest in research in cancer and I carried out Research MD from University of Lancaster and worked on iospectroscopy methods as a novel diagnostic tool in cancer and pre-cancer diagnostics.
My previous training was in Gujarat, India where I completed MD ( Obstetrics and Gynaecology) from M.S. University, Baroda. I moved to UK in 2004 and received further training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology in East of England.
