Professional background

Dr Preet Chaggar obtained her medical degree from University College London Medical School in 2011. She specialised in obstetrics and gynecology and completed her postgraduate training in The South London Deanery in October 2024. 

During her training, Preet undertook a three year clinical research fellowship with Professor Jurkovic at UCLH, where she developed advanced skills in the diagnosis and management of various gynaecological and early pregnancy conditions.  She has also completed several ultrasound-based research studies related to endometriosis, pelvic pain and quality of life. This work forms part of her PhD thesis, and has been published in high-impact peer-reviewed journals, and presented at international conferences.

Preet rejoined the team at UCLH in 2025, as a consultant, mainly working in the gynaecology diagnostic and treatment unit and early pregnancy unit but also providing gynaecological emergency and surgical care to patients.
