Dr. Afshan Khaja is an experienced Urogynaecology Consultant with over a decade of dedicated service within the NHS. She is passionate about improving women’s quality of life, specialising in the management and treatment of pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence. Her patient-centred approach focuses on providing safe, effective, and individualised care tailored to each woman’s needs.A key strength of Dr. Khaja’s practice is her ability to offer surgical solutions to women who may previously have been considered medically unfit for surgery due to complex health conditions.

She has particular expertise in urinary incontinence surgery using a patient’s own tissues, with a strong emphasis on avoiding mesh whenever possible.Alongside her clinical work, Dr. Khaja is deeply committed to medical education. She serves on the national interview panel for Obstetrics and Gynaecology trainees, contributes as a Part 3 MRCOG examiner, lectures third-year medical students at Birmingham Medical School, and examines fourth-year students.Dr. Khaja is also actively involved in charitable initiatives in Pakistan and plans to extend her work to India, while regularly speaking at community events across Birmingham.
