Our Doctors

Gynecologist, Obstetrician

In 1985, she went to the U.K. for exposure and further experience in the subject. Most of the medical knowledge and text books come from West, so her aim was to see the practice as is preached. This indeed turned out to be a wonderful experience, from academic point of view and also socially, culturally and spiritually.

After working abroad for 7 years, she returned home in 1992, armed with knowledge , experience and MRCOG degree to practise medicine in the changing Indian scenario, so unique; where age old values and customs sit comfortably by the side of cutting edge thinking and living.

Thus the task for her was both, challenging and satisfying at the same time. She loves helping mothers bring their precious little darlings into the world normally. Water Birth is the natural step in evolution. ( It strengthens mother’s role.)
