Neurology at Apex Hospital, Bikaner

Apex Hospital neurology Bikaner provides comprehensive care for disorders of the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves and muscles. Our neurology services combine modern diagnostics, evidence-based medical treatments, advanced neurosurgical techniques and structured rehabilitation to treat acute emergencies like stroke and seizures, as well as chronic illnesses such as Parkinson disease, dementia and peripheral neuropathy. Located on NH 89, Rani Bazar, Bikaner, Rajasthan, Apex Hospital neurology department Bikaner is positioned to serve patients across North Rajasthan with 24-hour neuro emergency support and a dedicated stroke pathway.

Neurological disorders are a leading cause of disability worldwide. Globally, an estimated 50 million people live with epilepsy, and dementia affects over 50 million people worldwide. Stroke remains one of the top causes of death and adult disability. In India, the burden of neurovascular disease is rising with an ageing population and increased prevalence of diabetes and hypertension; regions such as Rajasthan and districts around Bikaner are experiencing similar trends. At Apex Hospital, our integrated care model focuses on early diagnosis, rapid intervention and long-term rehabilitation to reduce morbidity and improve quality of life for patients from Bikaner and nearby areas.

Meet our team

Our neurology and neurosurgery teams at Apex Hospital Bikaner consist of experienced clinicians, nurses and allied health professionals who deliver patient-centered care across the continuum — from outpatient neuro OPD consultation to emergency management, surgery, intensive care and rehabilitation. The core team includes neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuro-anesthesiologists, neurophysiologists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists and nurse specialists trained in neurocritical care.

Key strengths of our team:

Experienced neurosurgeons with 12+ years of practice and training at premier institutions like PGIMER, supplemented by international exposure (for example training at Wooridul Hospital, South Korea).
Dedicated neuro ICU staff skilled in mechanical ventilation, intracranial pressure monitoring and post-operative neuromonitoring for complex cases.
Comprehensive neuro rehabilitation team including physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy to support stroke and paralysis recovery.

Conditions treated by our specialists

The neurology team at Apex Hospital treats the full spectrum of neurological disorders using a combination of medical management, interventional procedures, surgery and rehabilitation. We evaluate each patient carefully to determine the most appropriate, individualized plan.

Major conditions managed at our centre include:

Stroke and transient ischemic attack (TIA) — acute stroke management, thrombolysis where eligible, and comprehensive stroke rehabilitation.
Epilepsy and seizures — medical therapy, video EEG monitoring, epilepsy clinic follow-up and, where needed, surgical evaluation.
Movement disorders such as Parkinson disease and dystonia — medical optimization, deep brain stimulation (in select referrals) coordination, and long-term care planning.
Dementia and memory disorders including Alzheimer disease — diagnostic workup, cognitive rehabilitation and caregiver support.
Neuromuscular disorders — myasthenia gravis, muscular dystrophies, peripheral neuropathies and motor neuron disease management including EMG/NCV diagnostics.
Headache and migraine — specialized outpatient care for chronic migraine, cluster headache and secondary headache evaluation.
Spinal cord diseases — degenerative, traumatic and inflammatory myelopathies, with both medical and surgical treatment options.
Infections — meningitis, encephalitis and brain fever treatment with coordinated infectious disease support.
Facial palsy and cranial neuropathies — acute management and rehabilitation.
Pediatric neurology — seizures in children, developmental disorders and neurogenetic conditions (pediatric neurologist Bikaner).

For most of these conditions, a combination of diagnostic tests is used: EEG test Bikaner, EMG/nerve conduction study Bikaner, MRI brain Bikaner and CT brain scan Bikaner. Our center provides both diagnostic and therapeutic pathways so patients from Bikaner and North Rajasthan can access end-to-end care under one roof.

Treatments and surgeries at our hospital

Apex Hospital offers a comprehensive set of therapeutic options for neurological conditions. These include evidence-based medical therapies, minimally invasive procedures, major neurosurgeries, and structured neurorehabilitation. Our operating theaters are equipped with advanced technology for safe and precise surgery: operating microscopes, neuro-navigation systems, intraoperative neuromonitoring, and minimally invasive spine surgery equipment. High-end CT and MRI imaging guide diagnosis and surgical planning.

Key treatments and surgical services:

Acute stroke care: thrombolysis (where indicated), neurocritical care, endovascular referral pathways and stroke rehabilitation.
Craniotomy for brain tumors and vascular lesions: microsurgical tumor resection, clipping and bypass procedures, with intraoperative neuromonitoring.
Functional neurosurgery: surgery for epilepsy, movement disorder interventions, and spasticity procedures.
Spine surgery: discectomy, fusion, minimally invasive spine surgery and decompression procedures.
Peripheral nerve surgery: nerve repair, decompression and reconstructive procedures.
Neurocritical care: management of traumatic brain injury, intracranial hemorrhage and postoperative monitoring in a dedicated neuro ICU.
Neurorehabilitation: post-stroke physiotherapy, gait training, occupational therapy, speech therapy and long-term rehabilitation planning.

When comparing treatment approaches, patients often consider surgical versus non-surgical or minimally invasive versus traditional open approaches. The table below summarizes typical comparisons to help patients and families understand expected benefits and recovery:

Treatment type	Benefits	Recovery time
Minimally invasive neurosurgery	Smaller incisions, less blood loss, shorter hospital stay, faster return to activity	Days to weeks
Traditional open neurosurgery	Better access for large or complex lesions, allows comprehensive resection when needed	Weeks to months
Medical management (eg. for epilepsy, movement disorders)	Non-invasive, avoids surgical risk, suitable for many chronic conditions	Ongoing, with periodic follow-up
Endovascular interventions (for stroke/aneurysm)	Catheter-based, avoids open craniotomy, shorter recovery for selected vascular lesions	Days to weeks

Each patient’s suitability for a particular approach is decided after clinical evaluation, imaging and multidisciplinary discussion. Our neurosurgeons at Apex Hospital neurosurgery Bikaner will provide a transparent recommendation and estimate of expected outcomes and recovery timelines.

Treatment process at our hospital

The treatment pathway at Apex Hospital neurology department Bikaner is designed to be clear, compassionate and efficient. From first contact through long-term follow-up, patients and families are supported with structured processes and clear communication.

Typical treatment process:

Initial contact and triage: Patients may present to the neuro OPD or the emergency department. For emergencies (suspected stroke, severe seizures, sudden weakness), our 24-hour neurologist consultation and neuro emergency pathways ensure rapid assessment.
Clinical evaluation and investigations: Detailed neurological examination followed by necessary diagnostics — MRI brain Bikaner, CT brain scan Bikaner, EEG test Bikaner, EMG/nerve conduction study Bikaner and relevant blood tests.
Multidisciplinary discussion: Complex cases are reviewed in multidisciplinary meetings involving neurologists, neurosurgeons, anesthesiologists and rehabilitation specialists to formulate a personalised plan.
Informed consent and financial counselling: Before any intervention, patients receive a clear explanation of risks, benefits, expected outcomes and a transparent cost estimate. Insurance or Ayushman Bharat cashless options are explored where applicable.
Intervention or conservative therapy: This may include medical therapy, minimally invasive procedures, major neurosurgery or rehabilitation programs depending on the diagnosis.
Post-treatment monitoring: Patients needing critical care are cared for in our dedicated neuro ICU. Post-operative neuromonitoring and early mobilization are priorities.
Rehabilitation and follow-up: Structured physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy are provided. Regular follow-up in the Neuro OPD ensures chronic conditions are optimally managed.

Our aim is to provide end-to-end neurosurgical care under one roof — consultation, diagnostics, surgery, neuro ICU monitoring and rehabilitation. The care team places emphasis on patient education, shared decision-making and measurable outcomes.

When to consult a specialist?

Early consultation with a neurologist or neurosurgeon can significantly improve outcomes for many conditions. Patients from Bikaner and North Rajasthan should seek specialist care promptly when experiencing new or worsening neurological symptoms.

Seek urgent neurological evaluation if you or a loved one experiences:

Sudden onset weakness or numbness of the face, arm or leg — especially on one side of the body (possible stroke).
Sudden severe headache with nausea or vomiting, dizziness or loss of consciousness.
New onset seizures or repeated convulsions, prolonged altered consciousness.
Progressive memory loss, confusion or sudden behavioural changes.
Unexplained imbalance, ataxia or frequent falls.
Persistent or worsening headaches, migraines not controlled by usual therapy.
Progressive weakness, sensory changes or painful neuropathies.
New visual disturbances, double vision or drooping of the face.

For non-urgent but important symptoms — chronic headaches, episodic dizziness/vertigo, ongoing epilepsy follow-up, movement disorder evaluation and cognitive assessment — please book an outpatient neurologist consultation. Early evaluation enables timely diagnostics (EEG, MRI brain, EMG/NCV), initiation of disease-modifying treatments and linkage to rehabilitation services in Bikaner and across Rajasthan.
