About me
After qualifying, Mr. Safdar Rao completed basic surgical training in West Midlands and Kent, Surrey and Sussex Deanery. Following his membership examinations in surgery (MRCS) from the Royal College of Surgeons, Mr. Safdar Rao started his specialist training in Obstetrics & Gynaecology in East of England.
After his membership examination in Obstetrics and Gynaecology (MRCOG) from Royal College of Obstetrics & Gynaecology (RCOG), he obtained the RCOG ATSM certificate in Benign Open and Laparoscopic surgery.
Later in his training, he successfully secured the place for highly competitive RCOG Advanced Training Skills Module (ATSM) in Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery for excision of benign disease at Colchester General Hospital which is a recognised and well reputed endometriosis centre in UK. This gave him the opportunity to enhance his laparoscopic skills by working in multi-disciplinary setting with endometriosis, colorectal, urology and pain teams. After extensive training, Mr. Safdar Rao obtained the certificate of completion.
Mr. Safdar Rao has gained wide experience in gynaecological surgery including laparoscopic and open abdominal surgeries. He has special interest in total laparoscopic hysterectomy (keyhole).
