About Vijaytha Rathnam
I provide gynecologic surgery, obstetric services and comprehensive care to women. I have a particular interest in vaginal surgery and minimally invasive surgeries. I was lucky enough to move around quite a bit growing up. Having lived in multiple parts of various countries like France, United States, United Arab Emirates and Qatar has helped cultivate my language skills and cultural sensitivity. I am fluent in English , French and Tamil and am able to converse in Arabic and Hindi, especially in a medical setting. I love my job as an Ob/Gyn and truly love being there for my patients as a physician, surgeon, confidant and friend. The combination of continuity of care and the unique opportunity to become an active part of a patient’s short and long term health plans is what I believe to be the essence of good medicine. Outside work, I enjoy tennis, classical dancing and spending time with family.

Dr. Rathnam has been wonderful. I know that I'm not her primary demographic for her practice (pregnant women) but she still made me feel important as her patient.
Swedish Patient
Hands down I honestly want her to be my primary and just to handle all of my medical concerns because she's so thorough and I was in there for a really sensitive Condition and she made me feel absolutely like I was she made me feel really concerned about and I felt listened to, and I haven't felt that way from the doctor in a really long time. I really like her and I want her to provide care for me all the way around
Swedish Patient
The only difficulty I have had in working with this provider is that she is so full that it took a long time to get in to see her; I know that is not her fault, but it does negatively impact the experience, when you know you need help and can't get in to see someone. However, after getting in as a new patient, the scheduling has been excellent, and Dr. Rathnam's care and expertise has been incredible. I am grateful to be in her practice.
Swedish Patient
Doctor was so friendly but also very professional and clearly knew what she was doing. Genuinely felt like she cared.
Swedish Patient
Everyone was great.
Swedish Patient
I feel like some of the forms (there were many) were redundant or unnecessary, and they were for a New Patient, which I am not. The pap smear done by Dr. Rathnam was excellent, I hardly felt any discomfort whatsoever, and she very adept at getting it quickly. So 10 stars for Dr. Rathnam.
