Dr. SK Rajan

A 19-year-old engineering student and competitive gymnast suffered a complex C6-C7 fracture-dislocation during a training accident. Dr. Rajan performed anterior cervical discectomy and fusion with custom-designed titanium hardware. The athlete returned to light training at 4 months and full competition after 9 months, with Dr. Rajan personally monitoring her rehabilitation progress.

A 45-year-old corporate executive developed debilitating trigeminal neuralgia that resisted all medication. Dr. Rajan performed microvascular decompression surgery, discovering an aberrant arterial loop compressing the nerve. The executive was pain-free immediately post-op and returned to work within 3 weeks, calling it 'a rebirth'.

An 8-year-old child from an underprivileged background presented with progressive scoliosis measuring 65 degrees. Dr. Rajan coordinated with pediatric specialists and performed growing rod implantation, adjusting it every 6 months. The child's spinal curvature improved to 25 degrees over 3 years, allowing normal growth and development.

A 33-year-old pregnant woman at 28 weeks gestation developed sudden lower extremity paralysis from a spinal epidural abscess. Dr. Rajan collaborated with obstetricians to perform emergency decompression while maintaining fetal monitoring. Both mother and baby survived, with the mother regaining partial mobility after intensive postpartum rehabilitation.

A 72-year-old retired schoolteacher from a rural village presented with progressive leg weakness and bladder incontinence. Dr. Rajan diagnosed cauda equina syndrome from a massive lumbar disc herniation. Despite her family's financial constraints, he arranged charitable funding and performed emergency decompression surgery. The patient regained bladder control within days and was walking independently after 6 weeks of rehabilitation.
