- Took time to explain; He spoke very honestly; Now medication free; My quality of life has returned; Human Touch; The best medical Care sets him apart.
After initially seeing another surgeon at Woodlands hospital who advised he could not help me due to a pre-existing medical condition, I was referred via my private health insurance to Mr Kalyan. I was suffering with severe back and nerve pain, along with sciatica caused by disc protrusion. I was really struggling to walk and had lost hope due to the previous spinal surgeon I had seen and the long NHS waiting lists that meant I was facing up to a year’s wait for treatment. My quality of life was severely impacted due to intense pain and mobility issues.
From the moment I met Mr Kalyan he listened and questioned me in depth to understand more about my symptoms, pain and challenges completing normal daily tasks. HE TOOK TIME TO EXPLAIN THE FINDINGS in my MRI and the possible treatment options highlighting the possible benefits and stating the risks each treatment presented. HE SPOKE VERY HONESTLY about best and worst outcomes to allow me to make an informed choice. HIS EXPERTISE AND KNOWLEDGE AND MOST OF ALL HIS PATIENT FOCUS GAVE ME REAL CONFIDENCE IN HIS ADVICE.
In early July he administered 3 spinal block injections under anaesthesia, and I immediately felt relief and improvement in pain levels. THE AFTERCARE HE PROVIDES IS SECOND TO NONE, clearly explaining how to avoid further injury and aid recovery.
I AM NOW MEDICATION FREE, BACK AT WORK AND MY QUALITY OF LIFE HAS RETURNED.
I AM EXTREMELY GRATEFUL FOR THE CARE & TREATMENT I RECEIVED FROM MR KALYAN, HIS HUMAN TOUCH AND WILLINGNESS TO LISTEN WHILST PROVIDING THE BEST MEDICAL CARE SETS HIM APART.

- What a wonder this man is; Most caring health professional; Still Pain free; Unreservedly recommend him; Thank you for giving my life back.
For 18 months I suffered from horrendous sciatic nerve pain in my right buttock, leg, and foot. After taking lots of different medication and visiting various health practitioners, I conducted some research and found Dr Kalyan!
Within one week of seeing Dr Kalyan, and following a scan, Dr Kalyan diagnosed severe spinal stenosis - the following week I had lumber decompression surgery, discectomy and facetectomy. I am delighted to say that I am now 5 months post-surgery, and I am STILL PAIN FREE.
WHAT A WONDER THIS MAN IS, from my initial consultation to wound checks, Dr Kalyan is with you every step of the way. HE IS THE MOST CARING HEALTH PROFESSIONAL I HAVE EVER MET. I am a lady in my early 50's and have had to make some lifestyle changes but I will always make sure that I listen to his advice to ensure my spine serves me well.
I am very grateful to have met Dr Kalyan and CAN UNRESERVEDLY RECOMMEND HIM AND HIS LOVELY TEAM.
THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME MY LIFE BACK.

- Can Honestly say I have no pain whatsoever from my leg since! And have full use of my leg again; Care I received was exceptional and I’m forever grateful.
I was referred to Mr Kalyan with horrendous back pain, loss of feeling down my left leg, severe pain in my left leg that left me with only 50% strength/use of my leg.
He arranged an MRI scan which took place within that week. He explained my results and showed me where my problem was and explained the available treatments. I was operated on by Mr Kalyan and can honestly say I HAVE HAD NO PAIN WHATSOEVER FROM MY LEG SINCE! AND HAVE FULL USE OF MY LEG AGAIN.
The care I received from both Mr Kalyan and the BMI woodlands hospital was EXCEPTIONAL AND I’M FOREVER GRATEFUL to them. Thank you to Mr Kalyan and all staff you really are the BEST!

- After meeting Mr Kalyan, I had great faith in his ability and his knowledge; My sciatica was 100% pain free. My back pain has improved around 80%; Given me a new lease of life: I couldn't be happier to use him and his services. I would highly recommend; Excellent service and experience from start to finish.
I've struggled the last 2 years with severe sciatica and back pain with a disc protrusion and back problems. I tried physiotherapy, chiropractor, pain medication and was on the NHS waiting list for injections and possible surgery. After a year of waiting and an accident at work, my symptoms became unbearable and I struggled to get by day to day let alone work. With covid cancelling all non-urgent surgery, I was struggling to see my future and was becoming depressed. I decided to go private and first I tried a series of injections which did help for a short time but eventually wore off. The anaesthetists suggested I may need surgery and recommended Mr Kalyan as a great local consultant surgeon.
AFTER MEETING MR KALYAN, I HAD GREAT FAITH IN HIS ABILITY AND HIS KNOWLEDGE and after further tests, Mr Kalyan had the surgery booked in no time.
I had surgery on my lumbar and from the moment I woke up, MY SCIATICA WAS 100% PAIN FREE. MY BACK PAIN HAS IMPROVED AROUND 80% so far and I'm only 6 weeks into recovery.
Mr Kalyan has GIVEN ME A NEW LEASE OF LIFE AND I COULDN'T BE HAPPIER TO USE HIM AND HIS SERVICES. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND anybody struggling who was in my situation, to have a consultation at least with Mr Kalyan.
EXCELLENT SERVICE AND EXPERIENCE FROM START TO FINISH. I would like to thank Mr Kalyan for giving me my life back. Thank you!

I was in total agony with my back. He put me through a full MRI scan to determine my issues. Quickly diagnosing my pain problems, he done a temporary spinal block and gave me steroid injections. The pain relief was almost instant.
And although my arthritis will never improve, Dr Kalyan has made it possible for me to live pain free. To have a night’s sleep without waking up every time I turn is amazing.
I can’t thank Dr Kalyan enough for his professional service, He’s help change my life 👍

- Mr Kalyan has been meticulous showing both professionalism as well as compassion; The change to my life is immeasurable; My only regret is not seeing him sooner! An incredible surgeon & a wonderful, kind human being.
From the initial consultation to the resulting surgery and beyond, Mr Kalyan has been meticulous showing both professionalism as well as compassion. I underwent a decompression and discectomy procedure having suffered with severe back and nerve pain for a number of years, which had left me virtually immobile. Mr Kalyan put me at ease from day one, explaining in detail what to expect at each stage.
8 weeks’ post-op, the change to my life is immeasurable. My only regret is not seeing him sooner! An incredible surgeon and a wonderful, kind human being. Thank you so much Mr Kalyan.

- Dealt with in a very professional manner; From the initial consultation to the spinal procedure & fantastic aftercare; Sciatica symptoms have improved by over 90%; Very satisfied with the outcome.
I was referred to Mr Kalyan and did my own research before deciding to proceed under his care. Everything was dealt with in a very professional manner. From the initial consultation to the spinal procedure and fantastic aftercare. The information provided was very thorough and informative. Mr Kalyan and his team were always at hand if I needed any information or guidance.
Following my procedure, my sciatica symptoms have improved by over 90% and any discomfort I am left with is now handled with minimal medication due to adherence to the advice offered.
Very satisfied with the outcome and the follow up appointments are perfect for adding peace of mind to make sure I continue to make progress and also act as a reminder of what not to do! Many thanks!

- I have had back problems for 40 years; Mr Kalyan is the first to have achieved relief from the sciatic pain; I appreciated Mr Kalyan's warmth, kindness, and clear explanations throughout. I am very grateful to him.
Now 80 years old I have had back problems for 40 years and been treated by many practitioners, but Mr Kalyan is the first to have achieved relief from the sciatic pain I had been experiencing for a long time. From the first consultation, I had every confidence in him. He went to great lengths to explain to both my daughter and me what my MRI scan revealed, what my options were and to give advice on future care of my spine.
The care of me before, during and after the discectomy and spinal decompression operation, I opted for was faultless and I appreciated Mr Kalyan's warmth, kindness, and clear explanations throughout. I am very grateful to him.

- Very Knowledgeable; Spends time explaining the root cause of the problem, Great advice on preventative techniques; Very professional & approachable, Would definitely recommend
I have had a great experience with Dr Kalyan on two occasions, once for neck and then for back pain. Mr Kalyan is very knowledgeable and spends time explaining the root cause of the problem and has supporting materials to help make this understandable to a non-medically trained person. He offers great advice on preventative techniques as well as pain solutions.
After my pain became unmanageable, he was able to perform a spinal injection which was incredible and made my life so much less restricted. Mr Kalyan is very professional and approachable, strongly would definitely recommend.
