Biography
Rashi is part of a select group of doctors in Melbourne to obtain the highest level of postgraduate qualification as a fertility subspecialist, CREI (certificate in reproductive endocrinology and infertility). She uses her knowledge, experience and passion for fertility medicine to help her patients achieve the best outcomes possible.
Rashi has worked in two of Australia’s leading fertility units, including the Royal Women’s Hospital, Melbourne and draws on this experience to provide her patients with up to date and evidence based care. She is passionate about offering appropriate advice, investigation and treatment to her patients. Where less invasive fertility treatments are indicated such as lifestyle changes and ovulation induction, she is a strong advocate of them.
