Frequently asked questions

You can consult a neurosurgeon online through a video or telephone consultation, depending on the available service. During an online consultation, the neurosurgeon can review your symptoms, medical history and previous reports or scans and provide an initial assessment. Online consultation can be useful for discussing treatment options, reviewing investigations or seeking a second opinion. However, an in-person examination may be recommended when a physical or neurological examination is necessary.
A neurosurgeon diagnoses and surgically treats conditions of the brain, spine and nerves, including brain tumours, slipped (herniated) discs, spinal cord and head injuries, hydrocephalus, aneurysms and other cerebrovascular disorders, and nerve compression such as carpal tunnel syndrome. Many neurosurgeons also manage these conditions without surgery when that is the better option.
Yes, an online consultation can be used to seek a second opinion from a qualified neurosurgeon. You can share relevant medical records, MRI or CT scan reports, previous treatment details and other investigations for review. The neurosurgeon can explain the diagnosis, discuss available treatment options and advise whether surgery or conservative treatment may be appropriate. An in-person consultation may still be required before making decisions about certain procedures.
Start with a neurologist for symptoms such as headaches, seizures, dizziness, numbness or memory problems; they diagnose and treat neurological conditions with medicines and therapy. A neurosurgeon is the right specialist when a scan shows a problem that may need surgery, such as a tumour, a disc pressing on a nerve or bleeding in the brain. If you are unsure, book a consultation and the doctor will refer you if needed.
When choosing the best neurosurgeon in India, consider the doctor's qualifications, experience, area of specialization and experience treating your specific condition. It is also important to understand the recommended treatment options and whether the neurosurgeon has experience with the relevant procedure. For patients who cannot immediately travel, an online consultation can be a convenient way to discuss their condition and determine the next appropriate step.
