Neuro Surgery started as a separate super speciality in surgical practice in early part of 20th century. At present Neuro Surgery has become as safe as any other branch of surgery.
People from this part of India nowthink, Neuro & spinal surgery is not only possible at AIIMS, NewDelhi, CMC vellore, Nimhans, Bangalorebut this isnow possible at Bhubaneswar.
The SunshineHospital at Bhubaneswar , Odisha was functional on 01 Jan 2021 and this hospital has a Neuro& spinal sciences Department .
The Neurosciences Department at Sunshine Hospital, Bhubaneswar, constitutes Neuro Surgery, Neurology , Neuro Physiology, Neuropathology, Neuro radiology, Interventional neuro radiology, Major rehabilitation &advanced Physiotherapy centre .
The Neuro and spinal surgerydepartment provides the most modern treatment for all brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerve disorders to all clientele of the state of Odisha and surrounding part of the country by a fully committed and highly qualified team of Neuro scientists.
