Mr Jothy Kandasamy

Written by a NHS patient at Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh

Mr. Kandasamy performed brain surgery on me on May 2nd 2025 due to me having fluid on the brain. Prior to my operation i could barely walk, had memory loss, incontinence and a host of other problems. My surgery went well and i never even had any pain afterwards. I left the hospital after a couple of days and was able to walk unaided. All my symptoms have gone and i have fully recovered. I can't thank Mr Kandasamy enough for literally giving me my normal life back

Mr Kandasamy has been excellent from start to finish. From the first consultation he explained everything very clearly, ensuring I fully understood the options and the possible risks involved. Now 5 weeks post procedure, I have improved greatly and have had no side effects / complications. Very pleased with all aspects of the treatment I have received from Mr Kandasamy and would not hesitate to recommend him.

He was easy to talk to, listened and explained clearly. Pre surgery and immediately after the care was fantastic. Unfortunately the night staff were not at all good. At 11-00 pm when someone came to take blood pressure I was told they would be back at 2-00 and 6-00 for further checks finally saw someone after 7-00. I also had pressure pads on my legs which the day staff told me to keep on as they would be plugged in overnight to massage my legs. This never happened. And when mentioned in the morning when blood pressure was taken she just gave a grunt. Lucky for me I was able to get out of bed.

I underwent an operation performed by Mr Kandasamy on the 18th February this year for nerve decompression on L4, L5 and S1. Prior to the operation I was seen three times by Mr Kandasamy. Each time he carefully explained the procedure, followed by letters with attachments full of important information. Interim injections were unsuccessful. Immediately after the operation I had no further pain in my leg and the subsequent recovery is successful. I am extremely grateful to Mr Kandasamy’s professional skill and sympathetic care and have no reason at all to suggest any improvement to the above. Susan Prenter
