Cervical Cancer

1. Prevention Through Proactive Screening
Prevention is the cornerstone of cervical cancer care. Dr. Manisha Kakade emphasizes regular screenings like Pap smears and HPV testing to detect early changes in cervical cells. Additionally, she educates patients on the importance of HPV vaccination, a proven method to significantly reduce the risk of cervical cancer.

2. Advanced Diagnostic Expertise
If abnormalities are detected during screening, further diagnostic steps such as colposcopy and biopsies are promptly performed. These procedures ensure accurate diagnosis, allowing her to determine the most effective course of action.

3. Personalized Treatment Plans
Treatment is tailored to each patient’s unique situation, considering the stage of cancer, overall health, and personal preferences. Options include:

  • Surgical Solutions: From minimally invasive LEEP and conization procedures to hysterectomies and radical surgeries when necessary.
  • Radiation Therapy: Used as a standalone treatment or post-surgery to target remaining cancer cells.
  • Chemotherapy: Often combined with radiation for advanced stages to enhance treatment effectiveness.

4. Managing Side Effects with Compassion
She ensures patients receive comprehensive support to manage treatment side effects, such as fatigue, pain, or gastrointestinal issues, prioritizing their comfort and quality of life throughout the process.

5. Dedicated Follow-Up and Monitoring
Post-treatment care is essential to maintain long-term health. Regular follow-ups, screenings, and evaluations help monitor recovery and detect any signs of recurrence early.

6. Emotional Support and Counseling
Understanding the emotional toll of a cancer diagnosis, she offers counseling and connects patients with support groups. This holistic approach helps patients and their families navigate the physical and psychological challenges of treatment and recovery.
