Specialist women's cancer care
Dr. Nishtha Tripathi Patel is an ESGO-certified gynaecological oncosurgeon in Ahmedabad specialising in the surgical management of gynaecological cancers. The pages below cover each cancer type she treats — including ovarian, cervical, uterine, endometrial, vaginal, vulvar, and fallopian tube cancer — with information on symptoms, diagnosis, staging, and treatment options available at her practice.
Gynaecological cancers are a group of malignancies that originate in a woman's reproductive organs — the ovaries, uterus (endometrium), cervix, vagina, and vulva. Together they are among the most common cancers affecting women, yet many women are unaware of the early warning signs or the difference that specialist oncology care makes to outcomes.
Unlike a general gynaecologist who manages reproductive health broadly, a gynaecological oncologist has four to six additional years of training in cancer surgery, staging, chemotherapy protocols, and precision oncology. Research consistently shows that outcomes — survival rates, surgical complication rates, and quality of life — are significantly better when treatment is led by a fellowship-trained gynaecological oncosurgeon rather than a general surgeon or gynaecologist.
Dr. Nishtha Tripathi Patel is among the few ESGO-certified gynaecological oncosurgeons practising in Ahmedabad and Gujarat, bringing European oncology standards — including minimally invasive robotic surgery and HIPEC — to women across western India.
