NHS Consultant ObGyn, Co Founder of Women for Womens Health UK
Dr Nitu Bajekal, FRCOG is a Consultant Obstetrician & Gynaecologist for the NHS and at Spire Bushey Hospital http://www.nitubajekal.co.uk
Dr Bajekal is committed to improving women's health through public education. She is a passionate and enthusiastic teacher and is very involved in the training of future doctors and in empowering women through education. Patient satisfaction is extremely important to her, always keeping the best interests of her patients at heart.
Over the last 30 years of clinical practice, Dr Bajekal has developed special expertise in many areas, including endometriosis, PCOS, teenage health, and the menopause. She is skilled in Minimal Access Surgery(keyhole surgery), Vulval disease & cervical cancer screening.
Over the years, Dr Bajekal has developed a nutrition-focused and holistic approach to treatment, encouraging patients to make lifestyle changes to improve their health. She was inspired in 2014 to set up a women for women's health service (WfWH) along with her colleague after a growing realisation that by empowering a woman through information and open discussion, not only her health improved but also that of her entire family. They recognised the key role that nutrition and lifestyle play in major gynaecological conditions such as some cancers, polycystic ovarian syndrome, menopause.http://www.womenforwomenshealth.co.uk/
Dr Bajekal believes this knowledge should be available to people of all ages and from all walks of life. Young people especially are at the right stage where making small changes can have a tremendous impact on their future health.
WFWH run women’s health workshops in London since January 2015, aiming to educate and empower women to make better health choices. Profits are used to improve women's health. http://www.facebook.com/womenforwomenshealthuk
WfWH workshops alternate between talks and active sessions. The latest medical information about gynaecological conditions is discussed and nutrition and lifestyle advice given to participants as well as techniques in mindfulness, yoga, zumba and core strength.
