Dr. Shikha Saxena (HOD)

Dr. Shikha Saxena is a Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist at Mediclinic, with over 13 years of experience in UK hospitals. She completed her MBBS at Coimbatore Medical College in 2000, followed by postgraduate training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology at LLRM Medical College in Meerut, India. She holds membership with the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists and is certified in her specialty.

Dr. Saxena specializes in managing high-risk pregnancies and complex labour situations. Her clinical expertise includes keyhole surgery for ectopic pregnancies, caesarean sections, and instrumental deliveries (including rotational techniques), as well as external cephalic version — a procedure to turn a breech baby before labour. Most recently, she spent three years as a consultant at University Hospital of North Durham, where she led labour ward management and developed subspecialist skills in complicated obstetrics.

She is a good fit for women seeking experienced care during complex or high-risk pregnancies, those requiring operative delivery, or patients who value a clinician with extensive UK training and hospital-based practice.
