Explore every surgical and non-surgical option Dr. Sunkara offers, understand what each involves, and know exactly what recovery looks like before you decide.
01
We start with your diagnosis and symptoms, not a procedure. Every treatment recommendation begins from what's actually causing your pain.
02
Most cases begin with medication, physiotherapy, or a targeted injection. Surgery is recommended only when it's medically the better option.
03
If non-surgical care isn't enough, Dr. Sunkara explains exactly what surgery involves, what recovery looks like, and why it's the right next step.
Your scans and symptoms decide it, not a default. Most conditions start with medication, physiotherapy or an injection, and surgery is advised only when it's clearly the more effective option.
Book a consultation with Dr. Sunkara for a clear recommendation between surgical and non-surgical care, or send your case for an honest second opinion first.
