“The Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology offers comprehensive services for the reproductive health and gynaecological needs of women. It has one of the highest workloads in the entire country and admission into the residency training programme is highly coveted. Being a tertiary care centre, patients are referred from all over with a fascinating array of obstetric and gynaecological conditions.
Every year, approximately 23,000 new patients attend the outpatient department. There are 13,000 inpatients and 5000 surgeries. Annually, over 8000 women deliver in this centre. Large proportions of these women have some high risk factor complicating pregnancy. Critical care and medical disorders in obstetrics are areas of special focus. Babies requiring intensive care are transferred to an excellent Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Complete contraceptive services and facilities for medical termination of pregnancy are also available.
Microsurgery, endoscopy and oncological surgeries are performed routinely. The department is one of only three centres recognised by the Government of Maharashtra for training in laparoscopic sterilization.
There is a vigorous teaching programme for undergraduate and postgraduate medical students as well as nursing trainees. The department also accepts observers through the programme offered by the college. Research is actively encouraged and in fact, the department has the privilege of being a Human Reproduction Research Centre of the Indian Council of Medical Research and has actively participated in various pioneering academic studies.
The department has intake of 24 MS Postgraduate students. Twelve are posted in KEM Hospital, and twelve are posted in the NowrosjeeWadia Maternity Hospital (Both of which are affiliated to the Seth GS Medical College). There will no mandatory rotation of resident doctor-postgraduate students between the two institutes.
