Even the operation was taken good care. I did not have any difficulties. She took care of me like a mother. All the nurses were very helpful during my 3 days recovery in the hospital. Overall a good experience that I will remember.
Excellent Care throughout the delivery phase.All the small problems were recognised at the earlier stage and treatment is given and it was very effective. Doctors and nurses were too kind in assisting and giving necessary care. Personal attention is been given. Phone call advice helped for better care. Its been an wonderful and more satisfactory experience with doctor and her team in labor room. Thank you doctor and malar hospital for all the care you gave me for a fearless and painless delivery and acting deligently in last minute with uing every second of time as a precious one.
Visited For Menstrual Disorders
Hoped for better: Treatment satisfaction
The first issue which really irritated me was the presence of 4 extra people besides the doctor. Either they were trainee doctors who were getting experience or assistants. My objection is that, my health problems should be private and discussed only with the doctor. To make it worse there was man among this trainees. I have no issues with male gynaecologists but not when they are not main consultant but just a trainee.

Q: Who is a Gynaecologist?
A: Gynaecology is the medical specialization that deals with the female reproductive system. Hence, a Gynaecologist is a doctor who specializes in the health and the problems of the female reproductive system that includes the vagina, ovaries, uterus and breasts. Additionally, gynaecologists are also trained in Obstetrics and hence can deal with pregnancy and child birth too.
Q: Is there a difference between Gynaecologist & Obstetrician?
A: Where a Gynaecologist deals with the health and wellbeing of the female reproductive system, an Obstetrician specializes in pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum care. A Gynaecologist is trained in Obstetrics too. Hence, when a woman is pregnant, she can either consult a Gynaecologist or an Obstetrician, but for issues related to the female reproductive system, she should consult with a Gynaecologist.
Q: What are the common procedures performed by a Gynaecologist/Obstetrician?
A: Gynaecologist: 1. Dilation and Curettage (D&C) – The uterine lining is removed either by suction or with a curette. 2. Hysteroscopy– A hysteroscopy treats minor conditions inside the uterus in a non-invasive manner. Obstetrician: 1. Normal delivery - An Obstetrician helps in childbirth. 2. C-section – In case of any complications, the Obstetrician operates on the patient to ensure safe childbirth.
Q: Does a Gynaecologist/Obstetrician treat infertility in women?
A: Yes, a Gynaecologist/Obstetrician is trained to deal with infertility and related health issues in women. Consulting a Gynaecologist can be a great way to understand and evaluate the reason for infertility and explore the various avenues of treatment available. In case of infertility in women, you should consult with your Gynaecologist/Obstetrician, who will then refer to a specialist if required.
Q: How often should females visit a Gynaecologist/Obstetrician?
A: In general, females are advised to visit their Gynaecologist/Obstetrician at least once a year.
