Hello, I am
Dr Viju Thomas

I’m an endometriosis specialist, South Africa’s first Robotic Endometriosis Surgeon, and the country’s first dedicated Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) specialist for Fibroids and Adenomyosis. My practice is built on a bold belief: women who wish to preserve their uterus deserve real solutions, not just symptom management, and certainly not surgery as the only option. With RFA, we’re no longer just managing Fibroids and Adenomyosis — we’re offering a lasting, life-changing alternative.

A clear vision has always driven my journey in women’s health: to improve the standard of care for conditions that have long been overlooked or poorly treated. I continue to travel internationally to learn from leading centres, staying closely connected to global advancements so I can bring the best of what’s out there back home. I’m deeply aware of what’s currently available to women in South Africa — and more importantly, what isn’t.

It was that awareness that led me to endometriosis, a condition affecting so many, but rarely handled with the care and expertise it requires. I’ve dedicated my career to filling that gap. Today, I lead one of the only centres in Africa exclusively focused on Endometriosis, Fibroids, and Adenomyosis. Every patient we see lives with one or more of these complex conditions, and every member of my team is committed solely to their care.

As the needs of my patients evolved, so did my mission. Seeing the lack of effective, uterus-preserving options for fibroids and adenomyosis, I introduced RFA to South Africa for the first time. I brought back not just the technique, but the training, technology, and long-term vision to help women access modern, less invasive care — care that truly puts them first.

Endometriosis will always be the foundation of my work. But everything I do is driven by a belief that women deserve better — and now, they finally have it.
