About

A career built on investigating first.

Dr. Rita Bakshi founded EPIA to bring research-led, women-first fertility care to India — a place where science is strong but care is gentle, and where patients are supported through decisions rather than rushed into them.

Her practice is built on a simple order of operations: investigate thoroughly, explain honestly, and recommend only the care that is genuinely appropriate. That philosophy has shaped how EPIA approaches egg freezing, IVF, recurrent pregnancy loss and reproductive surgery.
