Overview

Neurosurgery deals with surgical conditions of the brain, spine and nerves, including epilepsy surgery for seizures that medicines cannot control. At VRA Health you can consult neurosurgeons online for MRI reviews, surgical opinions and post-operative follow-up.

Conditions we help with

  • Brain tumour evaluation and surgical opinions
  • Slip disc, sciatica and spinal stenosis
  • Epilepsy surgery evaluation for drug-resistant seizures
  • Head injury follow-up and post-concussion symptoms
  • Hydrocephalus and shunt-related queries
  • Post-operative neurosurgical care

When should you consult?

Consult a neurosurgeon when an MRI has shown a structural problem, when surgery has been advised and you want an expert second opinion, or when epilepsy remains uncontrolled on medicines. Sudden weakness, unbearable headache or prolonged seizures are emergencies - call 108, do not wait for an appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a neurosurgeon treat?

Neurosurgeons operate on the brain, spine and nerves - brain tumours, spine problems such as disc prolapse and stenosis, head injuries, hydrocephalus, and epilepsy that may benefit from surgery.

When is epilepsy surgery considered?

When seizures remain uncontrolled despite adequate trials of two or more appropriate medicines, a detailed evaluation can determine whether the seizures arise from one operable area. For selected patients, surgery can dramatically reduce or stop seizures.

Can I get my MRI reviewed online before deciding on spine surgery?

Yes. Share your MRI and symptoms, and the neurosurgeon will explain what the scan actually shows, whether surgery is needed now, can wait, or can be avoided with structured conservative care - a second opinion is especially valuable here.

Which neurological symptoms are emergencies?

Sudden severe headache, weakness of face or limbs, loss of consciousness, seizures lasting over five minutes, or loss of bladder control with back pain need emergency hospital care - call 108 immediately.
