Passionate about holistic patient care, Miss Ratnavelu emphasises the importance of women caring for other women with empathy and understanding, especially in accessing female gynaecologists during times of symptoms or concerns. After completing her medical qualification in 2003, Miss Ratnavelu undertook rigorous training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology across Northern Ireland and the West of Scotland. Her pursuit of specialisation led her to focus on Gynaecological Oncology in Gateshead, where she also obtained a Masters in Clinical Research from Newcastle University in 2011.
