Dual Fellowship trained Spinal surgeon with vast experience in Minimally Invasive and Endoscopic and Navigated Complex Spine surgerioes and passion for education and traing as well as Research .
Aim to set up the most advanced Spine care unit for the patients of Eastern India where they would get the benefits of all kinds of modern spinal surgeries like Minimally Invasive Tubular fusions, Endoscopic spine surgeries, navigated and ROBOTIC spinal surgeries, spinal deformity corrections with the same quality of care and outcome as is expected from a world class spine surgery unit. Also wish to set up an education and training facility for grooming young surgeons with passion in spine surgery
Royal Victoria Infirmary (RVI) in Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom has Great North Trauma Centre, one of the largest level one major trauma centres in UK. RVI is a referral hospital for spinal pathologies covering a major area of northern and north east England. The spinal surgery unit is one of the busiest centres in UK for paediatric and adult spinal deformity correction
As a fellow my responsibilities were running spinal clinics with consultants as well as hands on participation in surgeries, pain procedures and ward rounds. I had to make presentation in the weekly MDTs and monthly morbidity meets. I also had the responsibility of participating in a rota of one in five on call for spinal trauma, infection or tumours.
The Scottish National Spine Deformity Service deals with the paediatric and adult spinal deformity cases of the entire Scottish as well as part of Northern Irish population. The fellowship allowed me to gain excellent hands on exposure to complex spinal deformity cases .
