Specialties:
- Diagnostic and interventional cardiac catheterisation

- Preventive cardiology and cardiac risk factor management
- Hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidaemia in the cardiac context
Dr. Mahpaekar Mashhadi is one of Apollo CVHF's most experienced interventional cardiologists, with over 30 years in the specialty. She is the most senior female interventional cardiologist practising in Ahmedabad - a distinction that carries particular meaning in a field where women specialists remain underrepresented.
Her clinical practice spans coronary intervention and diagnostic catheterisation alongside a strong focus on preventive cardiology and the management of cardiac risk factors - particularly in women. Heart disease in women is significantly underdiagnosed and often presents differently from the classic patterns most associated with male patients. Dr. Mashhadi's experience makes her especially well placed to assess and treat female cardiac patients who may not have been taken seriously elsewhere.
Many patients - particularly women from more traditional backgrounds - feel more at ease discussing their symptoms and concerns with a female cardiologist. Dr. Mashhadi's presence at Apollo CVHF ensures this preference can always be accommodated without any compromise in the depth of specialist care available.
