Cervical cancer treatment outcomes depend critically on the expertise of the treating team. Women from Kota who choose Dr. Monisha Gupta at Fortis Hospital, Shalimar Bagh, New Delhi are choosing a surgeon with fellowship training from Tata Memorial Hospital — the same institution where India’s national cervical cancer treatment protocols were developed.
What Makes a Gynecologic Oncologist Different
A Gynecologic Oncologist undergoes 2–3 years of additional training beyond gynaecology, specifically in cancer surgery, chemotherapy, and the management of complex pelvic tumours. For cervical cancer — where the operation (radical hysterectomy) involves dissecting millimetres from the ureter, bladder, and major pelvic blood vessels — this specialist training is not optional, it is essential.
Dr. Monisha Gupta’s Experience
- Hundreds of radical hysterectomies and pelvic lymph node dissections performed
- Training in nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy — preserving bladder and bowel function after surgery
- Experience with sentinel lymph node biopsy for early cervical cancer — reducing the need for full lymph node removal
- Coordination with radiation oncology for concurrent chemoradiation in locally advanced cases
The Fortis Multi-Disciplinary Team
Patients from Kota — including those from Talwandi, Vigyan Nagar, Dadabari, Mahaveer Nagar — benefit from Fortis Hospital’s weekly gynaecological oncology tumour board, where every cervical cancer case is reviewed by a full team before treatment begins. This ensures the right treatment modality (surgery vs chemoradiation vs combined) is chosen for each individual patient.
