VISION FOR UROGYNAECOLOGY IN INDIA
My passion for Urogynaecology stems from first-hand experiences with patients who suffer in silence due to the lack of awareness and qualified care in this specialty. India has a high prevalence of pelvic floor disorders, yet there remains a significant gap in the availability of specialized urogynaecological care. I am committed to bridging this gap in diagnosing and managing these conditions and bringing high-quality, compassionate care.
