Mr Pubudu Pathiraja

Consultant Gynaecologist and Gynaecology Oncologist

MBBS, MSc(Res), MRCOG

I treat all types of gynaecological cancers. I am an experienced advanced laparoscopic surgeon, performing laparoscopic surgeries/minimal access surgery (MAS) for uterine, cervical and highly selected early-stage ovarian cancers.

I treat most benign gynaecological symptoms except infertility treatment and urogynaecological symptoms as we have separate sub-specialist for management of these conditions. A few examples of common benign conditions that I treat are heavy menstrual bleeding, needing contraception, menopausal symptoms, pelvic pain and PMS, ovarian cysts, irregular periods, post coital bleeding, vulval lumps, cervical smear abnormalities and fibroid uterus etc.

I have performed over 2,000 colposcopies, over 1,000 hysteroscopies, over 1,000 benign and diagnostic laparoscopic procedures, over 1,000 laparotomies and over 500 radical ovarian cancer debulking procedures.

I began my surgical career in Sri Lanka in 2000 after completing my internship in 1999. After moving to the UK I completed the structured postgraduate training programme in Obstetrics and Gynaecology and gained the Certificate of Completion of Training (CCT – 2010) in Obstetrics and Gynaecology. I then completed a sub-specialty fellowship at Oxford University Hospital that was accredited by the Royal College of Gynaecologists for Sub-Specialty in Gynaecology Oncology.

I am a member of the British Gynaecological Cancer Society (BGCS) and the BMA, and BSCCP-accredited colposcopist and trainer. I completed my research in image-guided surgery and surgical planning (MSc(Res)) at Oxford University while working as an Honorary consultant.
