I have seen Dr Kandikattu on a few occasions now, he is always kind and considerate. Throughout the procedure he asks how you are and if you need him to stop and give you a moment. He and his team are always looking out for you and your best interests. A very caring team. As I have an ongoing condition I will continue to see him once or twice a year, I am happy to do so. I always tell people how great, kind and gentle they are.

I am a very nervous patient and was very anxious about my procedure today at the Fitzwilliam Hospital, however after chatting with Dr Kandikattu he put me at total ease, during my procedure he kept me informed and explained what he was doing at all times, because of this the time flew past and before I knew the procedure was finished. A very professional doctor and also a understanding person, totally recommended.

I have suffered severe back pain for many years and I have tried numerous treatments none of which have given me a satisfactory outcome. After an initial course of injections by Dr. Kandikattu I experienced considerable relief. On my referral back with the doctor I was informed that as I had relief from this procedure he had a second step that he wished to take. Having talked it through with the Dr. I decided to go ahead with this. It has only now been 3 days since my procedure and I am feeling even more relief and expect this to continue. I believe that Dr. Kandikattu a superb manner when dealing with patients, he takes time explain what will be happening he goes out of his way to put you at ease before, during and after your procedure. I hold him in the highest regard and unreservedly recommend him. I would also like to add my thanks to the hospital staff who from arrival to discharge were all first class.

Profile


Dr Kandikattu is one of the few pain medicine consultants in East Anglia to have gained certification in the Fellowship in Interventional Pain Practice (FIPP). He uses the biopsychosocial model of pain to offer modern assessment and management of his patients’ pain at the Peterborough City & Stamford Hospital, Fitzwilliam and Boston West and Clementine Churchill Hospitals.

“Whilst doing my pain training at the Royal Marsden Hospital, Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, St Mary’s Hospital and Hillingdon Hospital, I was inspired by the pioneers in pain management there and I became keen to learn new techniques.”

“I am pleased to now be able to tutor students studying for their MSc in Regional Anaesthetics at the University of East Anglia and I hope that I can instil some of desire to embrace new and modern pain management techniques in these trainees.”

Dr Kandikattu offers comprehensive pain management to people suffering from chronic pain from their head to their toes including: cancer, musculoskeletal and spinal (neck, chest, lower back, sciatica), neuropathic, complex regional pain syndrome, fibromyalgia, chronic headaches and persistent post-surgical pain.

He performs a full range of pain interventions including epidurals, facet and sacroiliac joint injections, radiofrequency denervations, most of which are image-guided using x-ray or ultrasound guidance. He is also an expert in treating acute pain and inpatient pain management.

He offers outpatient appointments and inpatient care for pain management intervention at the Fitzwilliam and Boston West Hospitals. Patients struggling with chronic post-operative pain may need further pain management to relieve their discomfort and Dr Kandikattu can offer a back-up service for them too.

“I use this holistic model of approach for all my patients, taking all the biological, psychological and, social factors into account as each can impact on a patient’s pain. It’s important to treat patients as a whole.” said Dr Kandikattu.
