She also specialises in minimal access surgery (keyhole surgery), hysteroscopy, and the diagnosis of gynaecological cancer.
Having received her primary medical qualification in 2000 from the University of Cape Town, Miss Ismail gained initial experience working in busy units in South Africa. She then relocated to the UK where she began her career in obstetrics and gynaecology in London. Her specialised training was later undertaken in Oxford where she completed a structured postgraduate training programme. Miss Ismail received her membership with The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG) during this time. Not long after, she achieved her Certificate of Completion of Training (CCT) in obstetrics and gynaecology in 2014.
Miss Ismail continues to carry out research in her field. She has had many papers published in peer-reviewed journals. In addition, Miss Ismail is an active leader in educating future doctors by previously taking on the role of a college tutor with the RCOG, where she helped to teach and train junior doctors at the Women's Centre.
Currently, Miss Ismail practises at her private clinic with Nuffield Health while also working with the NHS. Within her practice, she puts a priority on enhancing patient experience, especially in an outpatient setting. She attains this by being an expert in both open and keyhole (laparoscopic and hysteroscopic) procedures.
