Gynaec Oncologist Naranpura in Ahmedabad — Expert Cancer Care
The short answer: Dr. Nishtha Tripathi Patel has no clinic in Naranpura. Women from Naranpura see her by appointment at Sterling Hospitals (Sindhubhavan Road), KD Hospital (Vaishnodevi Circle, SG Highway) or Welcare Speciality Hospital in Ahmedabad. As an ESGO-certified gynaecological oncosurgeon, she is the specialist to see when a report such as an ultrasound, a CA-125 blood test or a biopsy suggests a possible cancer of the ovary, womb, cervix, vagina or vulva, or when you want a second opinion.
Many families first notice symptoms such as pet ke neeche dard (पेट के नीचे दर्द, lower tummy pain) or bloating. Read more about specialist gynaecological cancer care in Ahmedabad.
At each hospital, cases are reviewed in a multidisciplinary tumour board before treatment starts. The plan depends on the cancer and its stage: open surgery, laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery, robotic surgery for suitable early womb or selected early ovarian cancers, or cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC or PIPAC for selected advanced ovarian cancer. Each option suits some women and not others.

Why Naranpura Patients Choose This Gynaec Oncologist
Naranpura patients typically consult for ovarian cyst review, abnormal Pap smear follow-up, advanced cancer second opinions, and chemotherapy follow-up coordination.
Dr. Nishtha’s practice is positioned for the cases that benefit most from a specialist gynaecological cancer surgeon rather than a general gynaecologist:
- Surgery for ovarian cancer — including advanced-stage cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC.
- Cervical cancer surgery — radical hysterectomy with lymph node dissection.
- Fertility-preserving surgery — for selected early-stage cervical, ovarian and endometrial cancers.
- Second opinions — independent review of pathology, imaging and treatment plans.
Dr. Nishtha is a member of the European Society of Gynaecological Oncology (ESGO) and brings international training standards to her practice in Naranpura and across Ahmedabad.
Treatments Available to Naranpura Patients
Treatment is chosen for each woman’s cancer type and stage. Dr. Nishtha’s practice covers:
- Robotic surgery — at Sterling Hospitals and KD Hospital, for most early womb (endometrial) cancers and selected early ovarian cancers, including staging and sentinel lymph node mapping. It is not the standard for cervical cancer.
- HIPEC — hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy with cytoreductive surgery.
- PIPAC — pressurised intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy.
- Cytoreductive surgery — complex multi-visceral debulking.
- Radical hysterectomy — for early-stage cervical cancer; open surgery is the standard for most women.
- Fertility-preserving surgery — for eligible early-stage cancers.
Every case is reviewed in a multidisciplinary tumour-board meeting with medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists and radiologists before treatment is finalised.

Gynaec Oncologist Naranpura FAQs
- Where can I see a gynaec oncologist if I live in Naranpura?
Dr. Nishtha Tripathi Patel, an ESGO-certified gynaec oncologist, has no clinic in Naranpura. She sees patients at Sterling Hospitals (Sindhubhavan Road), KD Hospital (Vaishnodevi Circle, SG Highway) or Welcare Speciality Hospital in Ahmedabad, and treats ovarian, cervical, uterine (womb), vaginal and vulvar cancers.
- Which hospital is closest to Naranpura?
It depends on your exact location and the traffic. Sterling Hospitals is on Sindhubhavan Road and KD Hospital is at Vaishnodevi Circle on SG Highway; a map app will show which is quicker from your home. Both offer robotic surgery and laparoscopy.
- Is robotic gynaecological cancer surgery available for Naranpura patients?
Yes, for suitable cancers. Robotic surgery and laparoscopy (keyhole surgery) are done at Sterling Hospitals and KD Hospital. Welcare Speciality Hospital offers laparoscopy but not robotic surgery. Robotic surgery suits most early womb (endometrial) cancers and selected early ovarian cancers; it is not used for advanced ovarian cancer, which needs open surgery.
For cervical cancer, open radical hysterectomy is the standard for most women. A large 2018 study (the LACC trial) found worse survival after keyhole or robotic radical hysterectomy than after open surgery in most cases. Keyhole or robotic surgery is considered only for selected small tumours (usually under 2 cm), after discussing this evidence with you.
- Can Naranpura patients get HIPEC treatment in Ahmedabad?
Yes, for selected patients. HIPEC (heated chemotherapy washed through the abdomen during surgery, sometimes called garam chemo) is combined with cytoreductive surgery at Sterling Hospitals, Ahmedabad. It is considered for selected stage 3 (sometimes stage 4) ovarian cancer when all visible tumour can be removed and the patient is fit for a long operation. It is not right for everyone and is not a guaranteed cure. Patients from Naranpura can have it in Ahmedabad without travelling to Mumbai or another city.
- Do I need a referral to see a gynaec oncologist from Naranpura?
No referral is required. Patients can contact the practice directly on +91 76988 00333 or via WhatsApp to schedule a consultation. Bringing existing reports makes the first visit more productive.
- My CA-125 is high. Does that mean ovarian cancer?
Not necessarily. Most labs treat a CA-125 below 35 U/mL as normal, but check the range printed on your own report. A CA-125 result is not read on its own: it is looked at together with a pelvic ultrasound and your symptoms, so ask a gynaecologist to go through it with you.
