Ongoing Research & Clinical Interests

• Adolescent PCOS — hormonal management and long-term outcomes
• High-risk pregnancy — medical disorders in pregnancy management
• Laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis — surgical outcomes and recurrence

A patient in her seventh month of second pregnancy (first delivery being emergency C-section) was managed by Dr. Vandana with a personalised birth plan targeting vaginal delivery — despite a high-risk obstetric history. Every measure was taken to optimise conditions for normal delivery, with the final caesarean (required for medical reasons) resulting in a rapid recovery, with the patient walking the very next day post-operatively.

A patient with severe adolescent PCOS and secondary amenorrhoea was managed comprehensively under Dr. Vandana's hormonal and lifestyle protocol — achieving regulated menstrual cycles within three months and significant improvement in associated symptoms including acne, reflecting her expertise in adolescent gynaecological health management.

• Calm, Empowering Guidance: Patients consistently describe Dr. Vandana as a doctor who ensures they feel genuinely informed and empowered — patiently clarifying all questions and supporting informed decisions at every stage of treatment.
• Long-term Trusted Advisor: Multiple patients describe Dr. Vandana as a reliable long-term partner in their gynaecological care — returning to her for pregnancy management, post-natal care, and gynaecological concerns across different life stages.
• Professional and Caring: Reviewers describe her as both highly professional and genuinely caring — a combination that makes her a trusted and recommended Gynaecologist at Apollo Women's Hospital, Chennai.

Patient-Centred Care

Dr. Vandana's clinical philosophy centres on empowering women with knowledge — ensuring that every patient understands their condition, treatment options, and expected outcomes before any management decision is made.

She is particularly known for her expertise in managing adolescent PCOS and high-risk pregnancies with a holistic, supportive approach that goes beyond prescribing medication.
