Dr Kandikattu is a lovely person who appears to care very much for his patients.
I found he listened to my concerns and sought out a problem. When I had had my first procedure he made a point of coming into my room after wards to check on me even though I was his last patient and he was on his was home.
During both procedures although taking great care of me we had some laughs which helped me to relax.
Could not have asked for better care.

Clear, concise communication throughout. The Dr made sure I understood exactly what the procedure involved, kept me updated at each stage and provided me with clear post-procedure instructions/exercises. I really felt that my well-being and comfort was paramount.

Dr Kandikattu handled my case professionally and caringly, from my initial appointment right through to the procedure. He explained extensively why I would need the injections and to which part of my back they would be administered.
On the day of admission he went through things again and during the procedure was talking me through each step and very mindful that I was not in any pain during this time. I knew I was "in safe hands".

The Dr was thorough. At every step he assured that i understood what was occurring and ensured that i was as pain free as possible.
This is the first instance where i have had a cannular and there was no bruise after.
It was a painless procedure which was unexpected due to it involving needles.
I would recommendt and commend the Dr for this procudure.

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.
