At Kingsbridge Private Hospital we can perform spinal surgery including cervical spine surgery (surgery on the spinal section of the neck).

Neurosurgery is a specialised medical discipline focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of disorders affecting the central nervous system (CNS), including the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves. It encompasses a wide spectrum of conditions, ranging from traumatic injuries and tumours to degenerative diseases and congenital abnormalities.

At your Consultation with one of our Neurosurgery experts, you can discuss fully any concerns you have and they will provide you with information on treatments available to you after your surgery.

Understanding the Central Nervous System

The central nervous system serves as the command centre of the body, coordinating various functions and processes essential for life. Comprising the brain and spinal cord, it regulates sensory perception, motor control, cognition, and emotions. Disorders affecting the CNS can have profound implications for a person's health and well-being, underscoring the importance of specialized care provided by neurosurgeons.

Scope of Neurosurgical Practice

Neurosurgical interventions are tailored to address a diverse array of conditions, each requiring a nuanced approach and individualized treatment plan. Some common neurosurgical procedures include:

  • Brain Tumour Resection: Surgical removal of tumours within the brain, aimed at alleviating symptoms, reducing mass effect, and improving overall prognosis.
  • Spinal Decompression: Relieving pressure on the spinal cord or nerve roots caused by conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or spinal cord injuries.
  • Cerebrovascular Surgery: Repairing abnormalities of the blood vessels in the brain, including aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), and strokes, to prevent haemorrhage or ischemia.
  • Functional Neurosurgery: Targeted interventions to modulate neural circuitry, such as deep brain stimulation for movement disorders or epilepsy surgery for intractable seizures.
  • Peripheral Nerve Surgery: Repairing or decompressing injured or compressed nerves to restore sensation, motor function, and quality of life.

Advancements in Technology

Over the years, neurosurgery has benefited immensely from technological advancements that have enhanced surgical precision, safety, and outcomes. These include:

  • Neuroimaging Techniques: High-resolution imaging modalities such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), and functional MRI (fMRI) provide detailed anatomical and functional information, aiding in preoperative planning and intraoperative navigation.
  • Minimally Invasive Approaches: Endoscopic and stereotactic techniques allow surgeons to perform complex procedures through small incisions or with pinpoint accuracy, minimizing tissue damage and reducing recovery times.
  • Neurostimulation Devices: Implantable devices such as deep brain stimulators and spinal cord stimulators offer targeted neuromodulation for various neurological conditions, providing symptomatic relief and improving quality of life.
  • Robotic Surgery: Robotic-assisted platforms enable surgeons to perform delicate manoeuvres with enhanced precision and dexterity, particularly in procedures requiring fine motor control and microsurgical techniques.

Neurosurgery stands at the forefront of medical innovation, offering hope and healing to patients with complex neurological disorders. With its blend of advanced technology, surgical expertise, and compassionate care, it embodies the relentless pursuit of understanding and addressing the intricacies of the central nervous system. As we continue to unravel the mysteries of the brain, neurosurgery remains steadfast in its commitment to improving patient outcomes and advancing the frontiers of medicine.

Patient Testimonials

"I am extremely happy with the treatment, and with the standard of care I have received. There is no doubt as to whether this treatment is highly effective. I have had several cosmetic surgeries (although not on my face) but can say in comparing the results of the Spring Thread procedure with other less invasive treatments, the results are more in keeping with the surgical procedures I have had." Spring Thread Patient Review, Cosmetech at Kingsbridge Patient
"I had surgery here at the weekend and I can't recommend this place highly enough. They took great care of me and kept me at ease throughout my stay. The staff were brilliant, really friendly and chatted away and the food was top class. This hospital was better than any hotel I wonder could I book a weekend away in it when I fully recover?" Mr McGinnity, Kingsbridge Patient
"EXCELLENT - Had surgery today under the very caring Dr Stewart and her team. I cannot thank her enough for all she’s done for me over the past few months. Everything was explained to me in detail and all my care was considerate, professional and compassionate. Everyone I’ve met today has been beyond kind from Will the Anaesthetist, the Nurses and theatre staff, the catering staff - there has been no exception. Thank you all for taking care of me so well today - look forward to getting home tomorrow x" Mrs McAleavey, Kingsbridge Patient

I arrived at 8.35am, taken to the ward at 8.45am (my admission time was 9am). Tended to by a lovely Nurse. Dr Roger Wilson spoke to me around 9.45am, in Theatre for 10am, recovery for 11.10am and now currently back on ward. These guys are awesome. From the consultant to anaesthetist to nurses to cater assistants. Absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much. I am so grateful to everyone at Kingsbridge for the service."

Many thanks x" Ms Forde, Kingsbridge Patient
"I have just been discharged from Kingsbridge today after surgery and was in for 3 days. From start to finish my experience was excellent. From catering staff up to senior nurses and doctors they were all fantastic and made my stay a positive experience. As a nurse myself I probably have high expectations of care and I certainly experienced the best of care in Kingsbridge who have staff they should be proud off.  Great teamwork." Ms Armstrong, Kingsbridge Patient

"Can’t praise Kingsbridge Private Hospital enough!! I had an operation a couple of weeks ago and I was so well looked after. My surgeon Mr Rashid was fantastic, and the nursing staff was also fabulous. I found they communicated very well to each other, so everyone knew when my meds were due, my allergies etc. They were so kind, so lovely, constantly checked to see how I was i.e. my temperature etc. The food was fabulous and the catering staff very helpful having had an operation were very happy to accommodate ... Thank you to all!" Ms Cheong, Kingsbridge Patient
"Staff very friendly and very efficient. Surgeon and surgery top class. Big thanks to the Nurses for all their care and patience" Mr Howard, Kingsbridge Patient
"I was in your facility yesterday for a day procedure (operation on my left arm). I wanted to write and express how impressed I was with the facilities and more importantly the staff on the Ward.

Everyone was excellent, and I mean excellent, i don't normally write congratulatory e-mails so this is high praise in my view. The Senior nurse was excellent, as was the Theatre nurse and the anaesthetist. Even the assistants that helped with catering and other duties. All came together to form a great impression of the establishment." Jason Carpal Tunnel Surgery, Kingsbridge Patient
"Very well satisfied with everyone at my appointment - firstly with reception who were very friendly and helpful, secondly with Mr Cusick who took his time to explain everything to me and finally One2One with Rose who organised the dates for my pre op and operation. I would highly recommend Kingsbridge Private Hospital." Patient Review, Orthopaedic Clinic
"When I attended Kingsbridge Private Hospital on the 14th May for a knee replacement the care I got was fantastic from entering the door until I was discharged on the 16th May. The surgeon Mr Laurence Cusick and his team was absolutely fantastic, the nurses and the rest of the team you couldn’t ask for better and the food was very good" Paitent Review , Knee Replacement Clinic
"My first knee replacement was October 2023, and this was done the manual way. The pre and post op was fantastic for both! There was almost no pain in my hip or rest of my body after the second surgery which was a huge difference compared to my first knee. I was able to continue my physio as normal and I noticed I had more movement a lot sooner with my second knee, the robotic assisted. I could not thank the staff enough and Mr McCaffrey for how kind and understanding, attentive they were. From the beginning, I felt heard, and understood. The nurses, the caterers, the physios, the doctors, pharmacists, it is top class care! Overall, in summary, I would highly recommend going for robotic assisted. It’s still a serious surgery, so pain is to be expected and recovery is not going to be rosy, but it is worth it. The relief I have now in both knees, walking without that bone-on-bone pain, I am grateful. And the robotic assisted was a noticeably less painful, faster recovery. " Robotic Assisted Knee Replacement , Kingsbridge Hospital North West Patient
