Lall Ramnath Sawh CMT, FRCS (Edin), FACS (born 1 June 1951) is a Trinidadian urologist in the Caribbean and Latin America.
He held the position of "Head Prefect"[4] and subsequently entered medical school at the University of the West Indies - Jamaica, when he was just seventeen years old.
[3] Graduating with first class honours,[4] Sawh was awarded a Commonwealth Scholarship after medical school and moved to the United Kingdom to specialize in urology.
[5] In 1985, he moved to the United States to complete his training as a Laparoscopic and Endoscopic Urology Fellow at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.
Dr. Sawh was therefore left as the sole urologist, giving him the opportunity to pioneer several urological procedures at the San Fernando General Hospital.
[8] Sawh is also acknowledged for introducing renal hypothermic surgery on the island[3] and is credited as the first surgeon in the Caribbean to perform a phalloplasty.
[3] In 2012, Sawh was included as one of the few surgeons, and only urologist, in Nasser Khan's historical recount, "Profiles - Heroes, Pioneers & Role Models of Trinidad and Tobago".
