Gynaecologist in Madipakkam

RV Clinic Madipakkam is at 144/2, 3rd Main Road, Sadasiva Nagar, near the Meenatchi Sundareswarar temple. Sadasiva Nagar is off Medavakkam Main Road, on the Keelkattalai side of Madipakkam Koot Road. If you know the temple, you are almost at the clinic.

By share-auto or bus. Share-autos run along Medavakkam Main Road through the day. Ask for Sadasiva Nagar or the Meenatchi Sundareswarar temple. Buses on the Velachery and Medavakkam routes pass Madipakkam Koot Road. From the junction, take a share-auto towards Keelkattalai and get down at Sadasiva Nagar.

By train. The nearest MRTS station is Velachery. From the station, an auto comes down Velachery Main Road to Vijayanagar and then along Medavakkam Main Road to the clinic.

Parking and entry. Two-wheelers park in front of the building. Cars can be left on the side road. The consulting room is on the ground floor, which helps if you are older, in pain or in the last months of pregnancy.

Many women searching for a gynaecologist in Madipakkam want a lady doctor, and that is a reasonable thing to want. Dr. Ragavi Vikram is a woman. She sees every patient herself, at every visit. There is no junior doctor or assistant who takes the consultation in her place.

Some problems are easier to say to another woman: white discharge, pain during intercourse, urine leaking when you cough, a feeling that something is coming down. In 17 years she has heard all of them, many times. Say it in your own words, in Tamil, English or Hindi, and she will ask the rest.

A lady attender is present during every examination. The examination room is separate from the consulting room, so the talking happens at the desk and the examination happens in private. She tells you what she is going to check, and why, before she checks it.

If you have been looking for a female gynaecologist near Velachery, Nanganallur, Keelkattalai or Adambakkam, this is the nearer of the two RV Clinic branches. The same woman doctor consults at both.

Madipakkam is a settled residential area, and the questions that come through this door reflect that. Periods that have turned heavy or irregular after 40. Fibroids that have already been found and now need a decision. Hot flashes and body heat at 45. Urine leaking years after a delivery. A mother bringing a daughter whose periods have not started. Surgery is planned here and done by Dr. Ragavi at Unittas Multispeciality Hospital, never at the clinic. Every service on the gynaecology services page is available at both branches, because the same doctor consults at both. If the OMR side is closer to you, go to RV Clinic Thalambur instead.

Most patients at this branch live within 5 km of the clinic. Velachery is the largest group. The route runs down Velachery Main Road to Vijayanagar and then along Medavakkam Main Road, about 3 km in all; the gynaecologist for Velachery patients page has the full route and parking notes. Nanganallur and Ullagaram come in along Madipakkam Main Road, also about 3 km; see the gynaecologist for Nanganallur patients page. Adambakkam patients come through either Nanganallur or Velachery, and the gynaecologist for Adambakkam patients page explains both ways.

Keelkattalai and Kovilambakkam are next door along Medavakkam Main Road, about 2 km away; the gynaecologist for Keelkattalai patients page covers the approach. Puzhuthivakkam and Moovarasampet are a short share-auto ride away. From the Medavakkam side, come up Medavakkam Main Road from Medavakkam Koot Road, about 5 km; details are on the gynaecologist for Medavakkam patients page. Pallikaranai patients come via Kamakoti Nagar or the Velachery to Tambaram road to Medavakkam Koot Road, also about 5 km; see the gynaecologist for Pallikaranai patients page.
