Dr. Shashikala Jain — Chief Gynecologist & Consultant in Hyderabad

Dr. Shashikala Jain is Chief Gynecologist and Consultant at KIMS Hospitals, Secunderabad, Hyderabad, with more than 42 years of experience in obstetrics and gynaecology.

Her practice is general gynaecology across the benign range. She manages uterine fibroids, adenomyosis, ovarian cysts, abnormal uterine bleeding, endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain, and provides menopause management. Endometriosis appears in her profile as both treatment and surgery, so the condition is handled medically as well as in theatre. Her operating list covers hysterectomy and laparoscopic hysterectomy, myomectomy and laparoscopic myomectomy, ovarian cyst surgery, endometriosis surgery, pelvic organ prolapse surgery, and therapeutic dilation and curettage.

She took her M.B.B.S. at Govt. Stanley Medical College in Chennai in 1986 and her D.G.O. at Govt. Kurnool Medical College in Kurnool between 1990 and 1992. Her one recorded academic distinction predates both: first prize in an essay competition in 1984 on recent trends in the treatment of Hansen's disease.

Her hospital history runs across two cities and four decades. She was at the Institute of Child Health Hospital for Children in Egmore, Chennai, between 1988 and 1989, then in Hyderabad at Vijay Marie Hospital between 1993 and 1994, at Mahavir Hospitals and Research Centre between 1994 and 1995, and at Fernandez Maternity Hospital Pvt. Ltd. between 1998 and 2000. Her present base is the Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences on Minister Road in Secunderabad.

She is a member of the Federation of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of India and a life member of the Indian Medical Association.
