although doctors in your area know the geography better to advise suitable neurosurgeon. I feel Christian medical college Vellore is an excellent choice but since it is about 500 km away 9-10 hours journey is not unfeasible seeing the expertise available there.

The Department of Neurological Sciences is multidisciplinary consisting of the following divisions. The current Head of the Department is Dr. Ari G. Chacko. This is a rotating headship every four years.
