Your first visit

Hearing that you may need brain or spine surgery is frightening. The first visit is about understanding your scans, your choices, and whether an operation is needed at all.

    Your symptoms, how long they have lasted and what has been tried so far. A family member is welcome in the room.

  2. Scans, explained

    Your MRI or CT is read with you, image by image, and a careful examination checks strength, sensation and reflexes.

  3. A clear plan

    Whether medicines, physiotherapy or surgery is right for you, what an operation involves, and how recovery will go.

Brain and spine surgery

Conditions treated

Neurosurgeons treat problems of the brain, spine and nerves that may need an operation. Dr. Kadlimatti has a special interest in endoscopic, minimally invasive spine surgery, skull base surgery, head and spine injuries, and surgery for blood vessel problems of the brain.

  • Slip disc and sciatica

    Leg pain, numbness or weakness from a disc pressing on a nerve. Many improve with medicines and physiotherapy; surgery is advised when they do not.

  • Neck and back problems

    Narrowing of the spinal canal, worn joints and an unstable spine that cause pain, tingling or weakness in the arms or legs.

  • Brain tumours

    Tumours of the brain and its coverings, assessed with MRI and removed safely when surgery is the right choice.

  • Head and spine injuries

    Emergency care after falls and road accidents, including bleeding inside the skull and fractures of the spine.

  • Bleeding and aneurysms in the brain

    A sudden, severe headache from bleeding, a ballooned blood vessel or a tangle of vessels, treated urgently.

  • Hydrocephalus

    Fluid building up inside the brain in children and adults, treated with a shunt or endoscopic surgery.

  • Trapped nerves and spinal cord tumours

    Nerves squeezed at the wrist or elbow, and growths on the spinal cord and nerves.

This list covers the most common reasons for a visit. If your problem is not listed, send a request and ask.

What patients say

Stories from patients and families, in their own words.

    Not every spine problem needs surgery.

    Many disc and neck problems settle with medicines and physiotherapy. The panel lists the medicine groups you may hear about before or after surgery.

    • Tell the surgeon about every blood thinner you take; most are stopped before surgery.
    • Do not stop seizure medicines on your own after brain surgery.
    • Back pain with numbness around the private parts or loss of bladder control is an emergency. Go to a hospital at once.
