Introduction

I’m an experienced fellowship trained spinal surgeon based in New Delhi, India. I have received comprehensive training in both neurosurgical and orthopaedic aspects of spinal surgery from centres of excellence (royal college accredited) in the United Kingdom. After completing neuro-spine fellowship from King’s college hospital, London, I pursued advanced deformity fellowship from the prestigious Queen’s Medical Centre in Nottingham. Thereafter, I was appointed as a locum consultant spine surgeon in the same unit, before coming back to my home country, India.

I’ve authored several academic articles in peer reviewed national and international journals. This includes the world’s largest series of giant herniated thoracic discs reported till date. I have been invited to speak on my research projects in many conferences through which I won the prestigious P.T.Rao gold medal for best paper presentation in the annual conference of Indian orthopaedic association and second prize for best paper in the British association of spinal surgeons conference in 2019. I continue to actively contribute to research projects and academics through my role as consultant spine surgeon in a teaching hospital.

My goal is to provide safe and quality outcomes to patients with spinal ailments enabling quick rehabilitation to maximum function through both operative and non-operative treatments.

My major spinal interests include:

• Lumbar and cervical disc degeneration
• Sciatica
• Minimally invasive spine surgery
• Disc replacement surgery
• Adult and paediatric deformities
• Vertebroplasty, sacroplasty, kyphoplasty
• Spinal tumours
• Spinal infection, trauma and inflammatory disorders
• Injection therapies (nerve root block, facet injections, sacro-iliac joint injections and caudal epidural)
• Sacro-iliac joint pathologies
