Dr. Islam Gamaleldin – Expert, Compassionate Care

Feb 19, 2026

I am a Consultant Gynaecologist and Co-Lead at the BSGE-accredited Endometriosis Centre at Southmead Hospital. With over 15 years of experience in advanced laparoscopic and robotic surgery, I provide specialist care for women with complex endometriosis and benign gynaecological conditions.

Specialist Endometriosis Care in Bristol

Endometriosis requires accurate diagnosis and expert surgical management. My approach focuses on:

  • Advanced laparoscopic excision surgery

  • Multidisciplinary treatment planning
  • Fertility-preserving techniques

As one of the few fully accredited robotic gynaecological surgeons in the UK, I have helped develop the Da Vinci robotic surgery programme in Bristol, improving precision, recovery time, and outcomes.

A Patient-Centred Approach

Living with endometriosis can feel overwhelming. My commitment is to provide:

  • Clear answers
  • Compassionate support
  • Honest guidance
  • Tailored treatment options

Every patient deserves to feel heard, safe, and confident throughout their treatment journey.
