Very communicative explaining everything as the procedure progressed. He was caring and understanding which gave me confidence at an extremely anxious time. Very professional throughout.

What an amazing DR, I am a very nervous patient as have had my infections previously, he remembered how stressed I get and this time was amazing really set me at ease and his team that worked with him were also very good and attentive and were talking to distract me from the procedure which was very good for me. A great man who keeps you fully informed of what he is doing throughout the procedure.

I have had numerous consultants over the years. Some good, some not so good and others that I wouldn’t trust with a wooden spoon. Dr Subhash Kandikuttu is easily the most reassuring Dr I have ever had. He explained the procedure in greater detail and could not have made me feel in safer hands if he tried. If it wasn’t a hospital procedure I’d highly recommend a visit to be treated! Keep up the good work - it’s much appreciated.

Dr Kandikattu is an excellent Doctor, very professional yet friendly. During local anesthesia procedures, Dr Kandikattu is reassuring and constantly checks on the welfare of his patients. Great all round care.

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.
