She has more than fifteen years of experience in Obstetrics and Gynaecology with a special interest in advanced laparoscopic surgery, infertility and high-risk obstetrics along with management of labour.
Dr Rana completed her seven years obstetrics and gynaecology training from Yorkshire (UK). As part of this training, she worked in tertiary hospitals in the NHS UK in Leeds & Bradford where she gained enormous experience in handling very high-risk Obstetrics both antenatal and in labour.

In 2011/12 Dr Rana completed a fellowship in reproductive medicine at the Leeds Centre of Reproductive Medicine, UK where the clinic performed more than 2000 IVF cycles during that period (then the highest in the UK). This extensive training provided invaluable experience in the management of couples with infertility including assisted reproductive techniques that includes IUI, IVF and ICSI.
She was awarded the certificate for Early Pregnancy and Advanced Gynaecology Ultrasound Scan by the British Fertility Society in recognition of her outstanding commitment to obstetrics and gynaecology.
Dr Rana has a very kind and empathetic manner towards her patients and receives excellent feedback from her patients and their GPs.
