GEORGE PANDIS

Mr George Pandis is a full time Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist at University College London Hospitals. He regularly manages a wide variety of conditions in benign gynaecology which require laparoscopic or hysteroscopic surgery, such as pelvic pain, menstrual problems, ovarian cysts and fibroids. His main area of expertise is advanced laparoscopic surgery and endometriosis. He is one of the three consultant gynaecology surgeons of the UCLH endometriosis centre which is among the first national centres accredited by the British Society of Gynaecological Endoscopy in performing complex laparoscopic surgery for rectovaginal endometriosis.

George Pandis graduated from the Medical School of Ioannina University, Greece, in 1991. He commenced and completed his entire specialist training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology in London university/teaching hospitals. During his training he completed a 2-year research fellowship in Fetal Medicine at King's College Hospital and a 2-year clinical fellowship in Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery at UCLH. He was awarded membership of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (MRCOG) in 2005 and the title of specialisation in Obstetrics and Gynaecology in 2007. He has published and presented several scientific works on laparoscopic surgery, endometriosis and fetal medicine in medical journals and books as well as at national and international congresses.
