GEM Hospital, a leader in advanced gastroenterology, minimally invasive surgery, and cancer care, recently announced the launch of its comprehensive GEM IVF Centre along with a dedicated Onco-Fertility (Fertility Preservation) Program, marking a significant advancement in integrated reproductive healthcare.
GEM IVF is an extension of the hospital’s existing Endogynaecology Department, further strengthening its expertise in endogynaecology and gynaec oncology under the leadership of Dr. Kavita Yogini, Head of the Department.
The department is led by Dr. Sai Darshini along with Dr. Saadhvi Balaji, reinforcing the institution’s specialist team in reproductive and endogynaecological care.
With growing awareness around infertility and delayed parenthood, the demand for advanced, ethical, and personalized fertility care continues to rise. The GEM IVF Centre has been established to provide precision-driven, evidence-based fertility treatment that combines advanced technology with individualised patient care.
The centre introduces a “Precision IVF” approach, where every patient receives a customised treatment plan based on clinical, genetic, and lifestyle factors. Moving beyond conventional one-size-fits-all protocols, the centre focuses on delivering highly personalised fertility solutions.
Key highlights of the GEM IVF Centre include:
1. Personalized ovarian stimulation strategies
2. Advanced embryo selection techniques
3. Transparent and ethical treatment pathways
4. Specialized focus on complex and previously failed IVF cases
Speaking on the launch, the leadership at GEM Hospitals stated, “Our goal is not just to offer IVF services, but to redefine fertility care through science, integrity, and compassion.”
In a socially significant initiative, GEM Hospitals has also introduced a specialized Fertility Preservation Program aimed at patients undergoing cancer treatment. Cancer therapies such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy can significantly affect fertility.
The GEM Onco-Fertility Program enables women to preserve their reproductive potential through advanced oocyte (egg) freezing techniques before beginning cancer treatment.
Launched under the theme: “Treat the Cancer. Protect the Future.”
The program offers:
1. Rapid initiation protocols to avoid delay in cancer treatment
2. Coordinated care with oncologists and radiation specialists
3. Safe and evidence-based ovarian stimulation for cancer patients
4. State-of-the-art cryopreservation facilities
This initiative ensures that young cancer survivors retain the possibility of parenthood after recovery, offering hope beyond survival.
What distinguishes GEM Hospitals is its integrated, patient-centric approach that provides comprehensive care under one roof — from cancer treatment and fertility preservation to advanced IVF services when the patient is ready for parenthood. By combining oncology and reproductive medicine, the hospital creates a seamless continuum of care focused on long-term quality of life.
As part of its continued commitment to academic excellence and knowledge sharing, GEM Hospital also conducted its monthly Continuing Medical Education (CME) program on May 10, 2026.
The session featured Dr. Suyajash Naval, Director of Notes Academy of India, as the guest speaker. He delivered a detailed lecture on “Mastering Adenomyosis”, with special emphasis on “Ablative Therapy in Adenomyosis.”
The event was attended by distinguished guests, including Dr. Chandrakala Maran, President of FOGSI Coimbatore Chapter, and Dr. C. Palanivelu, Chairman of GEM Hospitals, who emphasised the importance of collaborative learning and advancing standards in women’s healthcare and reproductive medicine.
