Plan your visitCandidates usually have leg-dominant pain from a herniated disc or lumbar stenosis that has not responded to six weeks of supervised physiotherapy and medication. During consultation we review MRI scans, complete a focused neurological exam, and discuss work or sport demands before confirming the suitability of an endoscopic approach.
Recovery varies with the diagnosis, procedure, neurological findings, general health, and work demands. Your surgeon and rehabilitation team should provide an individual plan for mobility, wound review, return to work, and warning signs.
Costs and out-of-pocket expenses depend on the diagnosis, procedure, room category, implants, insurer terms, exclusions, and pre-authorisation decision. Request a written hospital estimate and confirm cashless eligibility and coverage directly with the insurer or TPA before admission.
Our coordination team issues a detailed medical estimate, necessity letter, implant invoice, and operative summary aligned to TPA requirements. Corporate employees also receive stamped medical leave summaries and fit-to-work certificates tailored to HR policies.
Yes. We provide secure video consultations for second opinions and post-operative reviews—share MRI scans via our encrypted portal or WhatsApp before the call. International patients receive assistance with itinerary planning, visa documentation, and extended follow-up scheduling.
Travel, driving, lifting, gym work, and sport should follow an individual plan based on the diagnosis, procedure, wound, neurological findings, pain control, and mobility. Ask the treating team for activity restrictions and review criteria; a fixed timeline is not appropriate for every patient or procedure.
Pain management may include anaesthetic techniques, prescribed medication, positioning, and physiotherapy selected for the procedure and the individual patient. Patients receive instructions for routine postoperative questions and warning signs that require assessment by local emergency services or the nearest emergency department.
Absolutely. Upload your DICOM files to our portal or bring the CD to clinic—we review images during consult and explain every treatment path in plain language. You leave with a written care summary covering conservative care, surgical options, and red-flag symptoms that require urgent attention.
Compare experience with your specific condition, relevant training, hospital ICU and neuromonitoring access, and how clearly non-surgical options, surgical alternatives, risks, and expected outcomes are explained.
