This doctor was amazing. Very calm and pleasant. He explained everything that was going to happen in an easy way to understand. At the beginning during and after my procedure he was constantly reassuring me and making sure I wasn't in any pain. I would defiantly recommend this doctor. Thank you Dr Kandikattu.

Dr Kandikattu has done nothing but help me, his care towards me and his knowledge is an asset seeing as ive had no one know what has been wrong with my back after 20+ years. I felt secure and put at ease throughout my procedure. What a fantastic team, I cant thank you enough.

I have been under the care of Dr Subhash Kandikattu for several month. He is very polite, cautious and caring Doctor. Today I have visited the Fitzwilliam hospital where he is held in high esteem for a second nerve block injection in my neck. Dr Kandikattu was again so caring and he saw me through this experience for which I thank him. I thoroughly recommend this Doctor.

Very caring and understanding, although I was feeling nervous prior to the procedure, due to Dr Kandikattu professional attitude and detailed explanation provided prior to and during the procedure. I was made to feel very much at ease. Thank You

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.
