About Dr. Chitra Ramamurthy
Dr. Chitra Ramamurthy is one of Bengaluru's most experienced fertility specialists, with over four decades dedicated to helping women and couples navigate the deeply personal journey of building a family. Based at Apollo Hospitals on Bannerghatta Road, she brings a rare combination of clinical depth, academic distinction, and genuine compassion to every consultation. For many patients, she is not just a doctor — she is the person who helped them find hope when other paths felt closed.
Dr. Chitra completed her MBBS and MD in Obstetrics & Gynecology before going on to earn a Fellowship in Infertility from Apollo Cradle — a programme that sharpened her focus on advanced reproductive medicine. She also holds a Gold Medal in DNB (Diplomate of National Board), a recognition that reflects both her academic rigour and her commitment to the highest standards of medical practice. Across her career, she has built expertise in the full spectrum of fertility care, from ovulation induction and IUI to IVF and tubal reconstructive surgery.
Patients often describe Dr. Chitra as a doctor who truly listens. She takes time to understand each couple's history, concerns, and hopes before charting a treatment path. Her approach is evidence-based but never cold — she explains options in plain language, involves patients in decisions, and supports them emotionally through what can be a challenging process. Her particular experience with conditions like PCOS, endometriosis, premature ovarian failure, and uterine abnormalities means she is well placed to handle complex cases that may have seen setbacks elsewhere.
International patients travelling to Bengaluru for fertility treatment choose Dr. Chitra for her long track record, the trust she has earned within Apollo's world-class infrastructure, and the comfort of working with a senior clinician who communicates clearly in English. GAF Healthcare is proud to support her patients every step of the way — from first inquiry and appointment scheduling to travel, accommodation, and follow-up coordination back home.
