Areas of Expertise
Reasons patients see Mr Oudai Ali
Mr Ali’s practice spans cervical health, advanced minimally invasive surgery and complex general gynaecology. The consultation is focused on understanding the problem clearly before deciding whether investigation, surveillance, medical treatment or surgery is appropriate.
Cervical Health
Abnormal smear, HPV & colposcopy
Assessment after abnormal cervical screening, high-risk or persistent HPV, CIN, cervical biopsy findings and previous cervical treatment.
Minimally Invasive Surgery
VNOTES & keyhole gynaecology
Review of patients considering hysterectomy or other gynaecological surgery, including whether a less invasive surgical route may be appropriate.
Pelvic Pain
Endometriosis & unexplained pelvic symptoms
Consultant assessment of suspected or confirmed endometriosis, chronic pelvic pain, painful periods and pain during intercourse.
Bleeding
Heavy, irregular or postmenopausal bleeding
Investigation of heavy periods, bleeding between periods, bleeding after intercourse and postmenopausal bleeding.
Pelvic Conditions
Fibroids & ovarian cysts
Assessment of fibroids, ovarian cysts and endometriomas, including surveillance, imaging review and surgical planning where needed.
Specialist Gynaecology
Vulval disorders & second opinions
Specialist review for persistent vulval or vaginal symptoms, inflammatory vulval conditions, pre-cancerous changes and complex previous diagnoses.
Cervical Health
Abnormal smear, HPV, colposcopy and LLETZ
An abnormal smear or HPV result can create considerable uncertainty. Mr Ali provides consultant-led assessment from interpretation of the original screening result through colposcopy, targeted biopsy, histology review and treatment planning where required.
01
Review
Your smear, HPV result, previous biopsy findings and cervical history are reviewed in context.
02
Colposcopy
The cervix can be examined under magnification where a closer assessment is clinically indicated.
03
Biopsy
A targeted cervical biopsy may be taken where tissue assessment is required.
04
Treatment
If higher-grade cervical changes require treatment, options such as LLETZ can be discussed and planned appropriately.
Minimally Invasive Surgery
VNOTES and advanced gynaecological surgery
VNOTES is a minimally invasive surgical approach that uses the vaginal route rather than abdominal incisions or conventional laparoscopic ports for selected procedures.
Mr Ali is an accredited national VNOTES trainer and has extensive experience in minimally invasive gynaecological surgery. For appropriately selected patients, VNOTES may offer advantages such as avoiding abdominal scars and potentially supporting a shorter recovery pathway.
Suitability depends on the diagnosis, previous surgery, anatomy and individual clinical circumstances. A consultation is therefore necessary before deciding which surgical approach is appropriate.
Professional Background
Consultant expertise and clinical leadership
Mr Ali trained in colposcopy, gynaecological oncology and advanced laparoscopic surgery and has held consultant posts in the NHS since 2012.
His work includes cervical health service leadership, minimally invasive surgery, teaching and clinical research. He has trained clinicians in colposcopy and contributes to postgraduate gynaecology education as an RCOG Tutor.
Investigations & Procedures
A coordinated diagnostic pathway
Where clinically appropriate, Mr Ali can coordinate investigations through the LSDC pathway and arrange hospital-based treatment where a procedure requires an appropriate surgical setting.
Cervical Health
Colposcopy & cervical biopsy
Detailed cervical examination, targeted biopsy where indicated, histology review and treatment planning.
Imaging
Pelvic & transvaginal ultrasound
Imaging may be arranged for pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, fibroids, ovarian cysts and other gynaecological concerns.
Uterine Assessment
Hysteroscopy & endometrial assessment
Direct uterine cavity assessment and endometrial biopsy can be considered where clinically appropriate.
Laboratory

Cervical screening, HPV testing and relevant laboratory investigations can be incorporated into the diagnostic pathway.

Frequently Asked Questions
Seeing Mr Oudai Ali at LSDC Healthcare
What does Mr Oudai Ali specialise in?
Mr Ali is a Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist with particular expertise in colposcopy and cervical health, VNOTES and minimally invasive surgery, endometriosis, pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, vulval disorders and complex gynaecological assessment.
I have an abnormal smear or HPV result. Can I see Mr Ali?
Yes. Abnormal cervical screening, high-risk HPV and cervical cell changes are important areas of Mr Ali’s practice. He can review your results, advise whether colposcopy or biopsy is required and discuss treatment where clinically appropriate.
Does an abnormal smear mean I will need LLETZ?
No. Many abnormal cervical screening results do not require immediate treatment. The appropriate pathway depends on your HPV result, cytology, colposcopy findings and any biopsy result. LLETZ is considered where treatment of abnormal cervical cells is clinically indicated.
What is VNOTES?
VNOTES is a minimally invasive surgical approach in which selected gynaecological procedures are performed through the vaginal route rather than through abdominal incisions. Suitability depends on the individual patient and procedure.
Can Mr Ali give a second opinion before hysterectomy?
Yes. Patients considering hysterectomy or other gynaecological surgery can request a second opinion to review the diagnosis, treatment options and whether a minimally invasive approach may be appropriate.

Yes. His practice includes suspected and confirmed endometriosis, persistent pelvic pain, painful periods and other pelvic symptoms, with investigation and treatment planned according to the individual case.
