About
Dr. Ramasamy Ramanathan is a consultant obstetrician and gynaecologist at Metro IVF in Selangor. He earned his Doctor of Medicine (MD) from Crimean Federal University, Ukraine in 2009, then completed housemanship and medical officer training in obstetrics and gynaecology at Hospital Kuala Lumpur and Raja Permaisuri Bainun Hospital, Ipoh.
He continued his postgraduate training through the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (UK), attaining MRCOG membership in 2019. He has since collected a broad set of international credentials — FACOG (American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists), FRSPH (Royal Society for Public Health, UK) and FICS (International College of Surgeons, USA) — and holds a certificate in assisted reproductive technology obtained in Singapore.
An active member of both ASRM and ESHRE, Dr. Ramasamy serves on the RCOG Malaysia committee and the FOCUS UK MRCOG examination board, and delivers online teaching for medical students at UKM, UNIMAS and UiTM.
Clinical Expertise
- Assisted reproductive technology: IVF, ICSI and IUI within RTAC-accredited Metro IVF laboratories
- Female infertility: ovulatory, tubal and uterine factor evaluation and treatment
- Male infertility: assessment and management of male factor subfertility as part of couple-based care
- General obstetrics and gynaecology: comprehensive women’s health care alongside fertility treatment
Why Choose Dr. Ramasamy Ramanathan
His MRCOG (UK) and FACOG (USA) dual accreditation is uncommon in the region and signals training assessed against two separate international standards. Membership of ASRM and ESHRE keeps him current with American and European consensus on stimulation protocols and laboratory practice, which translates into internationally benchmarked care at Metro IVF. Because he treats both female and male infertility, couples can be assessed as a unit by one clinician rather than being split between specialists — a practical advantage in complex or unexplained cases.
