Established in the year 2000, the Trivandrum OBGYN Club was founded with a visionary goal to create a dynamic platform that unites professionals dedicated to the fields of obstetrics and gynecology. Recognizing the importance of continuous learning in these rapidly-evolving specialties, the Club set out to foster an environment where both academic growth and clinical excellence are prioritized.
To formalize its mission and ensure proper governance, the Club was officially registered as a trust on December 17, 2005. Under the esteemed leadership of Dr. K Jayakrishnan, who served as the first Managing Trustee and Chairman, the Club was steered towards establishing itself as a hub for knowledge-sharing and camaraderie. The founding board of trustees also included eminent practitioners and educators: Dr. Shanta Madhavan, Dr. P.V. Aysha, Dr. M. Subhadra Nair, and Dr. Elizabeth Iype, each contributing significantly to the foundation and vision of the Club.
Today, the Trivandrum OBGYN Club boasts a diverse membership, comprising obstetricians and gynecologists from both the academic sphere and clinical practice, drawn from Trivandrum and its surrounding regions. This diversity ensures a rich exchange of ideas, experiences, and best practices, elevating the standard of women’s healthcare in the region.
Among its key activities, the Club hosts regular monthly academic meetings, providing members with opportunities to stay updated on the latest advancements, discuss challenging cases, and collaborate on research initiatives. The highlight of the Club’s annual calendar is an international conference, attracting renowned speakers and delegates, and serving as a forum for professional development, networking, and the dissemination of cutting-edge knowledge.
Through these endeavors, the Trivandrum OBGYN Club remains steadfast in its commitment to promoting professional excellence in obstetrics and gynecology, while striving to translate these advancements into meaningful benefits for the wider community.
