I am an ophthalmologist, and was suffering from severe pain in my left leg for more than 6 months; which increased in such a way that I couldn't sit, stand or lie down comfortably. At that time I consulted Dr. Renjith Unnikrishnan, and after examining me thoroughly, he advised spine surgery. He explained to me about the risks and side effects as well. I had my spine surgery on July 3rd, 2023 and the result was a miracle. I was discharged the next day and could walk to my car without any pain. Now after a year, I am a really happy person. I could get back to my old lifestyle drive my car, and do everything like earlier. My sincere thanks to Dr. Renjith Unnikrishnan for his timely help.

My mother (aged 68yrs) have been suffering from severe foot pain and slowly she started feeling numbness on her right foot. We have been trying out few options but the right medication was not done. Finally we chose to meet Dr. Renjith Unnikrishnan sir. He not only helped us get the right treatment but he ensured we understand exactly what has happened. He showed immense patience and detailed us with the reason, process, after care and answered every question/concern raised by us. The key hole spine surgery was a great success and within few days she was all back to form. Her posture changed, her mental health was positive and she is happy(that matters the most). Thanks sir for the support.

My wife experienced a disc re-herniation after undergoing a microdiscectomy in Thailand on first week of March 2024. The condition worsened, severely compressing her nerves and affecting the mobility of her right leg. Her spinal surgeon recommended immediate fusion surgery. Considering the recovery needs, we decided to move to Kerala for the procedure. After extensive research, we found Dr. Ranjith Unnikrishnan at KIMS Hospital in Trivandrum, renowned as one of the finest spine surgeons in Kerala and an expert in scoliosis surgery, which is more complex than disc herniation surgery. Unable to secure an online appointment due to high demand, we used personal contacts at the hospital to get an appointment for April 9th, explaining the urgency of the situation. We arrived in Trivandrum on April 8th and met Dr. Ranjith the following day. After reviewing the MRI from Thailand and conducting a clinical examination, he confirmed that my wife's right leg was semi-paralyzed, with about 70% mobility lost, and recommended immediate fusion surgery. To our surprise, he scheduled the surgery for that same day, emphasizing the risk of delaying treatment. He explained that any delay could worsen her condition, making recovery difficult if the nerve damage became permanent. Dr. Ranjith scheduled the surgery for 9 PM and thoroughly explained the procedure, associated risks, and recovery period. The endoscopic fusion surgery lasted until 3 AM the next day. Dr. Ranjith, a senior surgeon who had been in the outpatient department that morning, stayed until the surgery was completed, showing remarkable dedication. He shared procedure photographs and assured me that, despite some difficulties, he had performed the surgery as best as possible. Amazingly, the next day in the ICU, he asked my wife to get out of bed and walk. Even under anesthesia, she managed to walk, and 80% of her leg mobility was restored, providing immense relief for us. Three months post-surgery, she is still in the recovery phase. The titanium implants used in the fusion surgery take time to fully fuse with the bones, causing occasional pain. While I wasn't entirely satisfied with the nursing care after moving to the room and some administrative procedures, we are grateful for Dr. Ranjith’s expertise and the hospital's facilities.

I consulted Dr. Ranjith Unnikrishnan for my disc herniation issue in February. I consider myself very fortunate to have met him at such a critical time. He mentioned that my condition had worsened and required surgery, warning that further delay could lead to serious complications. My back pain, which started radiating down my leg towards the end of October, became unbearable by the end of November. Despite consulting several doctors, visiting multiple hospitals, and taking numerous medications, nothing provided relief. The pain only intensified. When the pain became excruciating, a distant relative suggested I visit Dr. Ranjith Unnikrishnan at KIMS Hospital, Trivandrum. We decided to give it one last chance and visited him on February 3rd. That day, I finally understood my condition. Dr. Ranjith Unnikrishnan explained everything about my disease in a simple and comprehensible manner. He stated that surgery was the only solution since I had been suffering with the pain for so long. He also detailed the surgical procedure and the associated risks, which was very reassuring for my family and me. Unlike other doctors who hesitated to operate due to my age and predicted lifelong suffering, Dr. Ranjith Unnikrishnan confidently assured us that I would be completely fine post-surgery. We decided to proceed, and the surgery was scheduled for February 19th. Although I was nervous, Doctor's confidence and cheerful demeanor put me at ease. When I awoke around 2:30 am post-surgery, I was amazed to find him still in the postoperative ward. He had performed a 12 hour long procedure on the 19th of February starting from 7:30am and had come out of the OT at 7:30 pm in the evening. After that he performed my procedure and another procedure and only left the hospital after 4:30 am. His dedication and passion for his profession are truly commendable. Finding a doctor with such commitment is rare. The relief from pain was immediate after the surgery, with only some postoperative weakness. During my follow-up visit, doctor advised me to avoid bending forward and lifting heavy objects but reassured me that I could ride a two-wheeler again, provided I kept my back straight. This news made me incredibly happy. Four months after the surgery, I am back to normal with full energy. I owe my ability to walk properly and perform daily activities to Dr. Ranjith Unnikrishnan. Words cannot express my gratitude for his help. He is a simple, humble, calm, and composed man who treats his patients with immense politeness and patience. His dedication to his work is unparalleled. May God bless him abundantly, granting him good health for many years so that countless others can benefit from his exceptional service. Dr. Ranjith Unnikrishnan truly embodies the spirit of a dedicated and compassionate healer.

I am Lal aged 46. I am an IT professional. I had periodic back pain issues but one day it aggravated causing numbness in my legs while driving and also causing balance issues and my toe fingers non responding. I was admitted to KIMS and took consultation from spine specialist Dr Ranjith Unnikrishnan based on reference from one of my friend. He did the initial clinical checks and suggested X-Ray, MRI scans for diagnosis. I had a disk prolapse issue and he explained the situation and different treatment options. Key hole surgery was recommended as the long term solution for faster relief, recovery. I was initially sceptical on doing surgery, but since my friend also told that Dr Ranjith is an expert in this area and based on the reasons explained by doctor i agreed to do the surgery. He did the surgery same day and the next day i could walk and do all my regular activities. I am truly greatful to him on convincing the need for surgery and also the fast relief/recovery i got with latest surgical procedures like keyhole surgery with minimum impact and faster recovery. He is truly an expert and consider myself lucky to get his treatment. Thank you Dr Ranjith Unnikrishnan.
