Neurosurgery is among the most technically demanding fields in medicine, and it is one where India’s combination of experienced surgeons and advanced technology stands out — at costs that make treatment possible for patients who thought it was out of reach.

Procedures available

India’s neurosurgery centres perform brain tumour removal (including awake craniotomy), deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s, aneurysm clipping and coiling, skull-base surgery, and the full range of minimally invasive spine procedures — microdiscectomy, endoscopic spine surgery, fusion and disc replacement.

Indicative costs

  • Brain tumour surgery: $5,500–$12,000 (vs $50,000–$150,000 in the USA)
  • Deep brain stimulation: $18,000–$25,000
  • Microdiscectomy (spine): $3,500–$6,000
  • Spinal fusion: $6,000–$11,000

Advanced technology

Neuro-navigation, intra-operative monitoring and endoscopic techniques protect critical functions like speech and movement and speed recovery. These are standard at India’s leading centres, not premium add-ons.

Getting started

Brain and spine conditions need careful, individual assessment. Share your MRI and reports for a free neurosurgical opinion within 24 hours, including a recommended plan and an itemised cost estimate.

There is virtually no waiting list — most patients can be scheduled within one to two weeks of agreeing a plan.
