BRIEF RESUME OF DR JATIN SHAH
Dr Jatin P Shah was born in Ramsgate in the United Kingdom on the 15th of January, 1964. He subsequently completed his schooling and medical graduation from Mumbai in India. He obtained his MBBS, followed by MD (obstetrics and Gynecology) and DGO from the Seth G S Medical College and KEM hospital, Mumbai in January, 1990. On the way, he received numerous gold medals for his ICSE, MBBS, MD and DGO examinations. During his graduation days, he co-authored the "Photographic Atlas of gynecologic and obstetric operative techniques" with Dr Shashank V Parulekar.
He was closely associated with the IVF program from the time of its inception and birth of India's first test tube baby at the KEM hospital and Institute for Research In Reproduction. He had the rare honor and privilege of training under the two greatest pioneers of IVF in India, namely Dr Indira Hinduja (Clinician gynecologist) and the late Dr T C Anand Kumar (Reproductive Biologist and Embryologist)
He established the Mumbai Fertility Clinic & IVF Centre in 1994 where he continues to work till date.
As an entrepreneur he then helped establish IVF & ICSI centres in several cities all over India. The first such centre was established in Cochin in Kerala state in 1996 – procedures of IVF and ICSI were performed once in two months with a visiting team from Mumbai performing 20 – 30 cycles in just 3 – 4 days – thus he helped establish the first IVF and ICSI pregnancies of Kerala state. Thereafter, he began similar centres in Pune, Agra, Madurai, Erode and Chennai. Cases were performed in batches at all the centres – on an average once every two months for a duration of 5 – 7 years. More than 500 successful pregnancies were established at all the centres in this time frame.
He has to his credit, IVF and surrogacy babies for leading Indian film personalities such as Shahrukh Khan (Bollywood star), Karan Johar (famour producer-director of Bollywood) and other celebrities from all walks of life. Recently he was in the news for the birth of twin daughters to Maharastra’s famous bureaucrat couple, Manisha and Milind Mhaiskar.
