Gynaecology

Our gynaecological care covers every stage of a woman’s life — from adolescent menstrual support to menopause management. Services include cervical cancer screening, treatment for hormonal issues, fibroids, PCOS, and pelvic pain. We offer minimally invasive laparoscopic and hysteroscopic procedures, as well as vaginal surgeries and hysterectomies when needed. Menopause care includes hormone therapy and lifestyle support, with osteoporosis screening to protect long-term health.

Obstetrics

We provide personalised, full-spectrum pregnancy care for both low- and high-risk pregnancies. From early obstetric ultrasounds and prenatal screening to tailored birth plans and intrapartum monitoring, every step is guided with care. Support continues after birth with postpartum recovery, mental health care, and expert advice on family planning, contraception, and fertility.
