Specialises in
I had my initial training in various reputed hospitals in India before undergoing higher specialist training in Neurosurgery in London, after which I have done a Complex Spinal fellowship at National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, London. I have been a Consultant Neurosurgeon practicing General Neurosurgery and specialising in Complex Spine disorders for over 15 years. I also have a tremendous experience in treating patient with neck and low back pain; and arm and leg pains, and those with tumours in different sites of the brain and spine.
I operate on the brain and the spine. I specialise in a variety of operations on cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine to remove herniated discs to relieve arm or leg pains, namely anterior or posterior cervical operations, lumbar microdiscectomy, lumbar decompressions and fusion operations if needed for trauma and degenerative pathologies. I also perform injections to relieve pain.
