Hello everyone, my name is Alexander. I am a doctor, PhD. I am originally from Donetsk, Ukraine. I have been doing prenatal diagnostics for 28 years.

Mayank Chowdhury (India) - 13 Cases

I am working at Mayflower women's hospital, Ahmedabad from western India and heading the fetal medicine department. My journey with TheFetus.net over the last 19 years has been a great learning experience, even today. My thought process to evaluate a case is very much influenced by TheFetus.net. I started my career from Mehasana and my schooling was from Modasa.

Knowledge is pouring everywhere on the internet, but among them TheFetus.net stands out in terms of practical teaching and real, well worked up cases. TheFetus.net spreads knowledge which no one does in the current era. Professor Jeanty did this many years ago for many years and still the legacy continues.

I love to go to mountains, lakes and river during my childhood. I am fond of travel, reading books, cycling. During my scans, I constantly listen to Hindi and other music. My profession has given me opportunity to meet wonderful people like you. I love my family and spending time with them. I love TheFetus.net too!!!

I am very much thankful Professor S Suresh, Dr Indrani Suresh and Mediscan for this achievement. Now we have started fetoscopic surgery and our center is a one stop solution for the unborn, trying to make the unborn happier and healthier. Best wishes from Mayflower family, Ahmedabad.
