Meet Dr Deshini Packirisamy

Qualifications: MBBCh (Wits), FCOG (CMSA).

At my practice, I believe surgical care should be precise, gentle, and centred around the patient, her recovery, her body, and her wellbeing.

I am one of the few gynaecologists in the region who specialise in minimally invasive endoscopic procedures, offering advanced treatment for conditions such as fibroids, ovarian cysts, and endometriosis. These procedures are performed with smaller incisions, minimal scarring, and quicker recovery times, allowing you to return to your life with confidence and ease.

Our approach combines medical excellence with an aesthetic awareness—always putting the patient first, in every sense of the word.

Why I Chose This Path

I grew up in a small town where many women did not have access to proper healthcare. I saw firsthand how deeply that affected their lives. That stayed with me. It is what led me to become an obstetrician and gynaecologist, to be someone women could turn to, trust, and feel truly heard by.

I am passionate about creating a space where women feel safe, informed, and empowered at every stage of their journey, from adolescence to motherhood and beyond. There is no greater privilege than walking alongside a woman as she brings life into the world, or helping her feel strong in her own body again. This work is deeply personal to me, and I carry that into every consultation, every delivery, and every chapter.
