<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology offers
\ncomprehensive services for the reproductive health and gynaecological
\nneeds of women. It has one of the highest workloads in the entire
\ncountry and admission into the residency training programme is highly
\ncoveted. Being a tertiary care centre, patients are referred from all
\nover with a fascinating array of obstetric and gynaecological
\nconditions.<\/p>\n

Every year, approximately 23,000 new patients attend the
\noutpatient department. There are 13,000 inpatients and 5000 surgeries.
\nAnnually, over 8000 women deliver in this centre. Large proportions of
\nthese women have some high risk factor complicating pregnancy. Critical
\ncare and medical disorders in obstetrics are areas of special focus.
\nBabies requiring intensive care are transferred to an excellent
\nNeonatal Intensive Care Unit. Complete contraceptive services and
\nfacilities for medical termination of pregnancy are also available.<\/p>\n

\nperformed routinely. The department is one of only three centres
\nrecognised by the Government of Maharashtra for training in
\nlaparoscopic sterilization.<\/p>\n

There is a vigorous teaching programme for undergraduate and
\npostgraduate medical students as well as nursing trainees. The
