She has been an attending physician in Obstetrics & Gynecology at NYCHHC/ Jacobi Medical Center since 2013.

Her clinical interests include innovative gynecological sonographic procedures such as saline-infusion sonography, HyCoSy for tubal patency, removal of polyps and impacted intrauterine devices under ultrasound guidance, along with regular gynecologic ultrasounds.

Dr. Kondagari believes that the era of the gynecologist-surgeon-sonologist is emerging and integrating ultrasound as an essential part of future Ob-Gyn residency training optimizes the clinical management of our complex patients.
