This gentleman was fantastic, he explained everything to me about what was going to happen with my 4 facet Joint injections in my neck. Whilst the procedure was being performed he checked on me all the time asking me if I was okay and to tell him straight away if I was uncomfortable, he kept asking if my breathing was okay also. A very nice professional gentleman I would definitely recommend him. If I had to have another procedure I would definitely ask to see him again.

Dr Kandikattu is a very caring and passionate doctor who completely listens top his patients and then them treatment options. These options are clearly explained and you leave his office feeling well heard. During my procedure, Dr Kandikattu provided a running commentary of everything he was doing and constantly asked how I was feeling. I found this to be very reassuring and takes away some of the nerves one feels during such procedures. He is very hands-on and is very involved in the care of his patients.

This doctor was approachable,friendly and informative. I have seen him some 5 times now, three times within the theatre enviroment. He has a tenedency to ask very frequently how one is durring the actual procedures, the dialog, although on the face of it is repetative, it does not interfere at all with the theatre procedures. He does take time to explain procedures and I liked his manorisms.

I was very nervous and Dr Subhash Kandikattu was very relaxing telling me every step and making sure I felt no pain. I must say once the adrenaline wore off I was pain free and after 2 days I’m still feeling much improved. I will without hesitation recommend this doctor and the procedure. The hospital was Stamford

Today I received the best treatment ever, I had a total of 6 treatments for ongoing back pain. Dr kandikattu always makes sure that treatment is as painless as it can be. I would recommend without any reservation that you would be in safe hand N Armstrong

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.
