About

Ms Sonia Chachan is a Consultant Gynaecologist. She practices privately as part of the Reproductive Health Group and for the NHS at Stepping Hill Hospital. She first trained in India, at the University of Kolkata, and underwent further specialist training in the United Kingdom. She has a wide general scope within gynaecology, and holds a lead role for hysteroscopy and colposcopy within the department at Stepping Hill Hospital. Some of the surgical procedures she has trained in include laparoscopic and robotic surgery.

Some of Ms Chachan's special clinical interests include the management of women with menstrual disorders, as well as pelvic pain and problems with the cervix, such as abnormal smears. Her ‘one-stop' clinic is geared towards the treatment and investigation of these problems, with the intention of minimising the number of visits necessary.  She is also interested in the academic side of Gynaecology, regularly attending academic conferences. She is actively involved in the training and education of nurses, GPs and junior doctors.

Ms Chachan has a membership of the British Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology, the British Menopause Society, and the British Society of Gynaecological Endoscopy. She is also a Fellow of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists.

Explanation

Dr Chachan has been the first practitioner that I feel has really listened to my needs and understood my concerns, which I am incredibly grateful for. For the first time in three years I left a consultation feeling reassured. Not at any point did I feel as if I was being delivered a sales pitch, which has been my experience of paying for a private consultation before, I feel I was treated with dignity, outstanding professionalism and with my care at the forefront of her approach. I am planning to have Dr Chachan complete the rest of my treatment. Thank you so much.

One of the best appointments I’ve ever had. The scan can be quite daunting and I have struggled with it emotionally in the past, but here, Dr Chachan made me feel incredibly at ease with her thoughtful explanation and calm demeanour and so I felt I had no concern.

Explanation

Dr Chachan was one of the best Gynecologists I've worked with. Her explanation of the issues, causes and treatments was informative and conscientious. She made me feel comfortable opening up about my issues and I felt like she genuinely wanted to help. Her investigations into my condition was very thorough, she explored with multiple non-invasive techniques. For years I was made to feel insignificant and overdramatic by other doctors who would rush me back out of the door as soon as possible with no real explanation or confirmation. She was the only one who seemed passionate enough to help right up until the end. Thank you so much, please keep your spark and passion burning as women and families all around the world need Doctors like you.
