Gynaecology : General Information
A major part of my training relates to gynaecology. I have long experience with managing specific conditions using either medication or surgery when needed.
I enjoy gynaecological surgery and have presented papers on minimally invasive surgery in England, Germany and the United States. Nevertheless, I will always look for the simplest way to resolve a complaint and have a naturally conservative bias. If there is an effective non-surgical solution to a problem I will encourage its use.
I go to many conferences and postgraduate meetings to keep up with the latest developments.
