Zirakpur sits right at the edge of Panchkula. If you live in Dhakoli, Peer Muchalla or along the Zirakpur–Panchkula road, the OPDs of Dr. Gaurav Sharma, Senior Consultant Neurosurgeon, are often just 15 to 25 minutes away. From VIP Road, Baltana and the highway side, it may take a little longer depending on traffic.
Dr. Sharma sees patients at Advaith Brain & Spine Clinic in Sector 21 and at Paras Health - Panchkula in Sector 22. Patients from Zirakpur come with the full range of brain and spine problems, from slip disc and neck pain to brain tumours. And because Zirakpur is a busy highway junction, a fair number come after road accidents.
Not every knock on the head is serious, but some signs should never be ignored. Go to a hospital emergency department straight away if, after a head injury, the person:
Older people and anyone on blood thinners should be checked even after a minor fall, because bleeding inside the skull can develop slowly over hours or days.
Slip disc, sciatica, neck pain from cervical spondylosis, spinal stenosis and spine fractures. Most patients improve without an operation. When surgery is needed, endoscopic or minimally invasive spine surgery is used when it suits the problem.
After a road accident, back or neck pain with tingling or weakness in the arms or legs should be checked even if the X-ray looks normal. Ligament and disc injuries do not always show on an X-ray, and an MRI may be needed to see them properly.
Brain tumours, bleeding in the brain, aneurysms and stroke-related problems. See brain tumour surgery and stroke and aneurysm treatment.
The quickest way for most people is along the Zirakpur–Panchkula road past Peer Muchalla into Panchkula. Check Google Maps for traffic before leaving, especially in the evening, and call +91-9780703819 to confirm the timing.
