Doctor discovery · Neurosurgery
Chennai has Radiation Oncology listings in the wider GAF directory, but this article does not infer that every listed institution delivers SRS. Only dynamically resolved procedure relationships should produce clinician or hospital cards, and a card is not a ranking, machine inventory or outcome claim.
Quick answer
Neurosurgery treats selected brain, spine, nerve and cerebrovascular conditions using open, endoscopic, stereotactic or endovascular techniques. Planning depends on neurological findings, lesion location, imaging, pathology, urgency, functional risk and comparison with observation, radiation or medical care.

Chennai has Radiation Oncology listings in the wider GAF directory, but this article does not infer that every listed institution delivers SRS. Only dynamically resolved procedure relationships should produce clinician or hospital cards, and a card is not a ranking, machine inventory or outcome claim. 10 listed neurosurgery specialists currently appear for Chennai, across 5 hospitals in the catalog.
A doctor appears only when the GAF catalog records the matching Neurosurgery specialty, location and, where selected, exact procedure relationship. Results are not ranked by outcomes or medical superiority.
This directory uses professional catalog information and exact specialty and procedure relationships. It does not constitute a medical ranking, guarantee availability or replace a case review by a qualified neurosurgeon.
Chennai International Airport: Airport access can be comparatively direct for several hospital districts, but lodging should still follow the named bunker. Heat and humidity affect skin care during breast, head-and-neck or pelvic courses. Indoor rest and skin care should be planned rather than assumed as beach-hotel recovery. A shorter airport road is not a shorter IMRT course.

Treatments
Each neurosurgical procedure keeps its canonical cost guide. Doctor lists only include exact procedure mappings.
Skull Base Surgery
Skull base surgery approaches selected lesions at the interface of the nose, ear or neck with the cranial base, often using endoscopic endonasal or lateral routes with a combined ENT–neurosurgery team. Depending on the lesion, the team works through the nose with endoscopes or through a lateral otologic or open approach, removes the planned tumour or disease, and reconstructs the skull-base defect.

Spinal Tumor Surgery
Spinal tumor surgery decompresses or removes a tumour affecting the vertebra, canal or cord — metastatic or selected primary — when oncology and stability already sit on the same plan. The corridor follows the tumour. Decompression, biopsy, cement, screws or a cage reconstruction are combined only as the board planned.

Brain Tumor Surgery
Brain tumor surgery in India may involve open craniotomy, minimally invasive or endoscopic approaches depending on tumour location, size, pathology and surgical goals. Treatment planning typically includes imaging, neurosurgical evaluation, anaesthesia, surgery, hospital care and postoperative monitoring. After anaesthesia and positioning, a planned craniotomy or keyhole corridor exposes the lesion. The tumour is removed or debulked under magnification, often with neuronavigation. Tissue goes to pathology; the bone flap is replaced and the patient recovers in a neuro-ICU or high-dependency bay.

Glioma Surgery
Glioma surgery removes or debulks a glial tumour inside the brain, often using mapping, fluorescence or navigation so as much tumour as is safe can be taken while eloquent function is protected. A craniotomy is planned over the tumour. Mapping, navigation or fluorescence may guide resection. Tissue is sent for histology and, when written, molecular tests. Closure and neuro-ICU observation follow.

Meningioma Surgery
Meningioma surgery removes a tumour arising from the meninges, ranging from a convexity mass to a skull-base lesion wrapped around nerves and vessels. A craniotomy or skull-base approach exposes the dural origin. The tumour is dissected from brain, sinus or cranial nerves as far as is safe. Dura is repaired and the bone flap replaced.

Pituitary Tumor Surgery
Pituitary tumor surgery removes or debulks an adenoma or related sellar mass, most often through a transsphenoidal corridor, to relieve optic-nerve pressure or control hormone excess or deficiency. Usually under general anaesthesia, a transnasal transsphenoidal route reaches the sella. The adenoma is removed under the endoscope or microscope. The sellar floor is reconstructed to limit CSF leak.

Endoscopic Brain Surgery
Endoscopic brain surgery reaches an intracranial target through a small corridor with a camera, often via a ventricle or keyhole, when anatomy already makes that route honest. A burr hole or small craniotomy admits the endoscope. The target is inspected, biopsied or removed under irrigation. Haemostasis and closure follow; conversion is discussed in consent.

Aneurysm Clipping
Aneurysm clipping places a microsurgical clip across the neck of an intracranial aneurysm so blood no longer fills the sac, after angiography has already written an open rather than endovascular plan. A craniotomy exposes the parent vessel. Temporary clips may be used while the definitive clip is placed across the neck. Intraoperative angiography or Doppler may confirm exclusion. Neuro-ICU vasospasm watch follows if the aneurysm had ruptured.

AVM Surgery
AVM surgery microsurgically disconnects and removes an arteriovenous malformation so arterial blood no longer shunts directly into veins. A craniotomy exposes the nidus. Feeders are disconnected, the nidus is removed and draining veins are taken last. Intraoperative angiography may confirm clearance.

Deep Brain Stimulation
Deep brain stimulation implants electrodes in a selected brain target and connects them to a pulse generator so Parkinson disease, tremor or dystonia can be modulated after a named functional-neurosurgery review. Electrodes are placed with stereotactic guidance, sometimes with microelectrode recording or asleep imaging confirmation. Leads are tunnelled to a chest or abdominal pulse generator. Programming starts after swelling settles.

Epilepsy Surgery
Epilepsy surgery removes, disconnects or modulates the brain region generating seizures when video-EEG and MRI already write an operation rather than medicines alone. If resection is planned, a craniotomy exposes the zone — often temporal — and the tissue is removed under mapping. Alternative sittings include hemispheric disconnection or implantation of monitoring or stimulation hardware.

Hydrocephalus Surgery
Hydrocephalus surgery treats excess cerebrospinal fluid, most often by placing a ventriculoperitoneal shunt, when imaging already writes diversion rather than medicines alone. A ventricular catheter is placed, connected to a valve and tunnelled to the peritoneum or another terminus. Intraoperative confirmation and a post-operative scan may be obtained.

The quick answer on this page is summarised from GAF Healthcare’s Neurosurgery treatment guide. That guide remains the canonical article for clinical context, treatment options and planning.
A neurosurgeon evaluates the relevant diagnosis, explains suitable neurosurgical procedures, coordinates treatment-specific assessment and follow-up, and discusses alternatives and material risks. The specialty guide provides clinical context without ranking individual doctors.
10 catalog records currently match this Chennai listing. Filter by city, hospital or documented procedure. “Best” is the discovery heading for that search intent, not a clinical ranking.

Use the stored India planning range as the stored India planning range. No verified Chennai-only price is stored; the final amount follows record review and an itemized hospital letter.
Only profiles dynamically matched to this exact procedure should be shown. If no card appears, that is a current catalog gap rather than a hidden list. Verify role, current appointment and treating campus; placement is not a ranking.
There is no universal best hospital. Compare the named radiation oncologist, exact bunker, quote boundaries, technique and fraction assumptions, and continuity of follow-up after return. This page names no provider.

Initially I was very hesitant what to do, where to go for the treatment of my father who was suffering with prostate cancer. Thanks to google, I came into touch with Gaf Healthcare. They have arranged everything, starting from treatment plan, video consultation, airport pickup, to surgery and following up. My father was operated in Sahyadri Pune, robotic prostatectomy was done. Now he is fine.
★★★★★
The hospitality was at its point. I appreciate the great service I got from the team. Being away from Home and get the feeling like you are at home is what Gaf is doing. Thank you once more, this have lifetime memories in my life.
