About Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Smita Memorial Hospital
The Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Smita Memorial Hospital cares for women at every stage of life — from adolescence to pregnancy and menopause. Experienced obstetricians and gynaecologists handle routine, complex and emergency cases with a focus on safety, comfort and advanced medical care.
Pregnancy care covers antenatal and postnatal management, high-risk pregnancy, painless delivery and VBAC. Labour rooms, LDR suites and a labour operation theatre sit on the same floor as the NICU, so mother and baby are never far from specialist care. The hospital's single-room model gives every mother privacy during her stay.
