Dr Kandikattu was polite, pleasant and kept me informed the whole way through my procedure. It was very reassuring to have him keep talking and explaining to me what was happening as he went along. i was extremely happy with my procedure.

Dr Kandkattu goes above and beyond to make you at ease. He explains everything fully even showing diagrams of what causes what. When he treats you with injections he is very gentle and aware of not hurting you. It would be impossible to get a better doctor and if I could award him 10 stars instead of five I would.

Doctor Kandikattu is an excellent, kind and caring doctor who listens to you and then discusses the options availablle in great detail so that you are fully aware of what is going to happen to you during the operation and procedures. He is really friendly and helps to keep you at ease not only during the consultation but also whilst performing the operation.
On the day of the peration when you go in he is always cheerful, and will sit down and explain the minuteist detail of what is going to happen and also explains to you what the the benfits of the operation should be. He also explains in great detail the things that could go wrong with the procedure and how rare they are.
in my eyes he is an absolute brilliant doctor who goes above and beyond what is need to keep you informed and at ease during the operation and he is the only doctor that I know who apologises and says sorry for putting a needle into your back to start the operation and throughout the operation. This dodtor deserves a medal for what he does as he is a great asset to the NHS and if I could would give him 200/100 if it was possible. Thank you for everything you have done for me not only recently the 3rd of February when you performed the nerve painblock, but also for all the previous times. A truly kind and gentle doctor and person.

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.
