With over 20 years of experience in Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Dr Kanika Chaudhuri has a keen interest in early pregnancy care and taking care of high-risk pregnancies. She is a visiting consultant at NUHS where she runs a high-risk pregnancy clinic.
A high-risk pregnancy is one in which a woman and her fetus face a higher-than-normal chance of experiencing problems. These risks may be due to factors in the pregnancy itself, or they may stem from pre-existing maternal medical conditions, such as diabetes, or lupus. Dr Kanika works closely with other specialists such as haematologists, endocrinologists, cardiologists etc to give a multidisciplinary and holistic care and guides her patients to achieve the best possible outcome for their pregnancies.

Individualized care is very important in the care of high-risk pregnancies which Dr Kanika is able to provide with the assistance of senior staff nurses trained in obstetrics.
