Neurosurgeons in Hapur

A neurosurgeon treats diseases of the brain, spine and nerves, such as brain tumours, slipped discs, sciatica, spinal stenosis, head and spine injuries, hydrocephalus, aneurysms and nerve compression, using surgery only when it is needed. See a neurologist first for headaches, seizures, dizziness, tremor, memory problems or tingling, because they mainly treat these with medicines. See a neurosurgeon when a scan shows a problem that may need an operation, when surgery has already been advised, or after a head or spine injury. If you are unsure, book either one and the doctor will refer you.

Book an appointment if back or neck pain lasts more than a few weeks, pain shoots into an arm or leg, you have numbness, tingling or weakness, headaches are new or getting worse, you have had a head or spine injury, or a scan shows a tumour, aneurysm or disc prolapse. Go to the nearest emergency room or call 112 (or 108 for an ambulance in many states) for a sudden severe headache, weakness or numbness on one side, difficulty speaking, a seizure, loss of consciousness, or back pain with loss of bladder or bowel control.

Most neurosurgeon consultations in India cost roughly ₹600 to ₹2,000, and more for very senior surgeons at large metro hospitals. On GNSC, the fee is shown on each doctor's profile before you book (video consultation fees are currently ₹600 to ₹2,000). Scans, tests, procedures and follow-up visits are charged separately. The cost of surgery depends on the procedure, hospital and implants, so ask the doctor for a written, itemised estimate.

Pick a neurosurgeon from the list, choose a video or in-clinic slot and confirm. You do not need a referral. Video works well for a first opinion, scan review and follow-up, but the doctor may ask you to visit in person for a physical examination. It is not for emergencies. Upload your MRI or CT reports, earlier prescriptions and test results to your medical records before the visit, and keep a list of your current medicines.

Check four things: training (an MCh or DNB/DrNB in Neurosurgery after MBBS, with a valid National Medical Commission or state registration), experience with your exact condition, whether the doctor explains non-surgical options as well as surgery, and practical fit such as location, language, fee and availability. On GNSC you can filter by symptoms, experience, gender, language and consultation type. Getting a second opinion before major brain or spine surgery is common and sensible.
