You know when you meet someone and you just automatically feel in safe hands? That sums up Dr Stelios.
BSc MSc MBBS (London) MRCOG
With over 18 years of experience in maternity services across London, including Chelsea and Westminster, I offer calm, expert guidance throughout your pregnancy and birth.
Every delivery is approached with gentleness and precision. Whether you are planning a natural birth or a caesarean with a natural feel, I place great importance on your recovery so you can be fully present for those first moments with your baby.
I also specialise in complex cases such as cervical cerclage, including TAC and TVC procedures. Many families have entrusted me with their journey toward a healthy, full-term pregnancy.
My approach is built on trust and collaboration. I provide clear, compassionate support and encourage shared decisions so you feel informed and confident throughout.
If you are seeking maternity support defined by expertise, empathy and personal choice, I would be honoured to hear your story and explore how we can shape your experience together.
