Gynaec Oncologist Prahlad Nagar in Ahmedabad — Expert Cancer Care
The short answer: Dr. Nishtha Tripathi Patel does not see patients in Prahlad Nagar itself. If you live in Prahlad Nagar and need a gynaec oncologist (a cancer surgeon for women, who treats cancer of the ovary, womb, cervix, vagina and vulva), you can book a consultation with her at Sterling Hospitals on Sindhubhavan Road, KD Hospital at Vaishnodevi Circle on SG Highway, or Welcare Speciality Hospital. In Hindi this is often searched as bachedani ya ovary ke cancer ki doctor (बच्चेदानी या ओवरी के कैंसर की डॉक्टर).

Why Prahlad Nagar Patients Choose This Gynaec Oncologist
Patients from Prahlad Nagar typically consult for postmenopausal bleeding evaluation, ovarian cyst review with surgical recommendation, advanced cancer second opinions, and HIPEC eligibility assessment.
Dr. Nishtha’s practice is positioned for the cases that benefit most from a specialist gynaecological cancer surgeon (gynaec oncologist) rather than a general gynaecologist:
- Surgery for ovarian cancer — including advanced-stage cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC.
- Cervical cancer surgery — radical hysterectomy with removal of nearby lymph nodes. Open surgery is the standard for most early cervical cancers.
- 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 Prahlad Nagar and across Ahmedabad.
Treatments Available to Prahlad Nagar Patients
For patients from Prahlad Nagar, Dr. Nishtha’s practice covers the full surgical spectrum of gynaecological oncology:

- HIPEC — heated chemotherapy (garam chemo) given during cytoreductive surgery, for selected patients.
- PIPAC — pressurised intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy.
- Cytoreductive surgery — complex multi-visceral debulking.
- Radical hysterectomy — for early-stage cervical cancer; usually done as open surgery, with keyhole or robotic surgery only for selected small tumours.
- 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 Prahlad Nagar FAQs
- Is there a gynaec oncologist clinic in Prahlad Nagar?
Not in Prahlad Nagar itself. Dr. Nishtha Tripathi Patel, an ESGO-certified specialist in women’s cancers, consults at three Ahmedabad hospitals: Sterling Hospitals (Sindhubhavan), KD Hospital and Welcare Speciality Hospital. Patients from Prahlad Nagar can book at any of them for ovarian, cervical, womb, vaginal or vulvar cancer care.
- How long does it take to reach the hospital from Prahlad Nagar?
It depends on traffic and the time of day, so please check a map app before you set off rather than relying on a fixed time. You can choose whichever of the three hospitals is most convenient; the doctor is the same at each.
- Is robotic gynaecological cancer surgery available for Prahlad Nagar patients?
Yes, for the cancers it suits. Robot-assisted surgery is available at Sterling Hospitals and KD Hospital; Welcare Speciality Hospital does keyhole (laparoscopic) surgery but has no robot. Robotic surgery suits most early cancers of the womb lining (endometrial cancer) and selected early ovarian cancers. For cervical cancer, open surgery is the standard for most early cancers: the 2018 LACC trial found worse survival after keyhole or robotic radical hysterectomy. Robotic surgery is not an advantage for cervical cancer and is considered only for selected small tumours (usually under 2 cm) after this is discussed with you.
- Can Prahlad Nagar patients get HIPEC treatment in Ahmedabad?
HIPEC is offered to selected patients. It is heated chemotherapy (garam chemo) given inside the abdomen at the end of cytoreductive surgery, and it is performed at Sterling Hospitals, Ahmedabad. It may be suitable for some stage 3 (occasionally stage 4) cancers when all visible tumour can be removed and the patient is fit enough. The operation takes about 8–14 hours and is not a guaranteed cure.
- Do I need a referral to see a gynaec oncologist from Prahlad Nagar?
No. You can book directly by calling or sending a WhatsApp message to +91 76988 00333. If you have reports, scans or biopsy results, please bring them.
- Can I send my reports on WhatsApp before coming from Prahlad Nagar?
Yes. You can share your reports on WhatsApp at +91 76988 00333, for example to ask for a second opinion or to check whether you need to come in. A proper examination and some tests may still be needed at the consultation.
