Dr subhash kandikattu was absolutely fantastic, I have never felt so safe with a doctor before. Let alone calm, I suffer with serve anxiety and he managed to calm me down withing seconds.
Explained absolutely everything and made sure I understood.
The procedure itself, was pain free, little tugging at the end but he made sure with every injection that I was okay and comfortable. That it was bare able and asked if I was happy to proceed after each injection.
He also spoke through out the procedure.
If I could have him as my personal doctor I 100%
What a fanstic influence on the NHS he is a credit to their team.

I was referred to Dr Subhash Kandikattu from my Orthopaedic surgeon for advise on pain treatment for Spondylylothesis, a decision for nerve block injections to be adminstered was agreed. On 15th March 2021 I was admitted to the Fitztwilliam Hospital where all staff involved in my care were professional and caring. Dr Subhash Kandikattu explained to me all that was going to happen during the procedure and where I would be having the injections in great detail. During the procedure he was very attentive and always checked with me first before continuing with anything to see if I was in any pain, if I was then he saw to it immediately. I could not have asked for better treatment. I have just received my follow up telephone call and due to the nerve block injections not being affective, he has now going to try spinal epdidurals. A very kind, caring and professional doctor and would have no hesitation in recommending him to friends.
