Reviewing a proposed procedure with your chosen doctor
Cervical Cancer Surgery
second opinion in Mumbai.
Medical term: Cancer-directed cervical surgery or radical hysterectomy
Already chosen your gynaecological oncologist in Mumbai or Navi Mumbai to review your proposed cervical cancer surgery? When you cannot attend yourself, Redwood organises your existing records and questions, takes the case to that doctor and shares their recommendations.
You choose the doctor. We take your case to them.
Understand the procedure
What is cervical cancer surgery?
Surgery for cervical cancer aims to remove the cancer and, where indicated, nearby tissue or lymph nodes. The operation depends on stage and other tumour features. Some carefully selected patients may have a fertility-preserving option.
This is general procedure information. Your chosen doctor assesses what applies to you.

Questions for your chosen doctor
Choose the questions that matter to your situation. We record them in your own words and take them to the consultation.
- What stage and tumour features guide the proposed operation?
- Is a fertility-preserving procedure an option in my case?
- What lymph-node assessment is planned, and how could the result change treatment?
- What are the implications for bladder function, sexual health and ovarian function?
Your existing case file
Records to organise
We organise the cervical biopsy, cone-biopsy or previous excision reports alongside your treatment history and the written procedure recommendation. We note what you want the gynaecological oncologist to clarify and keep the original reports available for the consultation.
Share the records you already have. This is a document checklist, not a request for new tests.
Bring together what is available
- Cervical biopsy, cone-biopsy or previous excision reports
- MRI and completed staging scans
- Gynaecological oncology and multidisciplinary recommendations
- Fertility priorities, prior pelvic treatment and current prescriptions
- Your written procedure recommendation, current prescriptions and allergy details
When you cannot attend yourself
How Redwood takes your case to your doctor
- Tell us whom you have chosen. Share the doctor’s name, hospital or clinic, and the decision you want reviewed.
- Prepare the case with us. We organise your existing records, treatment timeline and questions, then coordinate the appointment.
- We attend with your case. Your Care Steward takes the organised cervical cancer surgery case file to the gynaecological oncologist you selected and puts forward your recorded questions. After the consultation, we share the doctor's recommendations and consultation documents with you.
A video call during the consultation can be arranged if the doctor allows.
We respond within 12 hours of your enquiry.
