About me
Mr Chaudhary's clinical work covers the spectrum of adult spinal pathology including intradural conditions with specific research interest in cervical spine surgery including myelopathy and spinal cord injury, minimally invasive (keyhole) spine surgery and day case surgery.
During his 20 years of medical training, Mr Chaudhary was affiliated with and trained in many of the top universities including Oxford University, Cambridge University, Imperial College and University of Toronto.
His Neurosurgical Spinal Registrar/Residency programme was undertaken at Addenbrookes Hospital (Cambridge University Hospital NHS FoundationTrust) where he was also the Chief Resident for Neurosciences. Prior to his consultant appointment, he undertook a complex combined Neurosurgical and Orthopaedic Spinal Fellowship with Professor M. Fehlings, Dr S. Lewis and Dr R. Rampersaud in a AOSpine North American accredited programme at the Toronto Western Hospital, Canada.
Mr Chaudhary has now sub-specialised purely in the treatment of spinal conditions including disc prolapse, spinal stenosis, cervical myelopathy, spinal cord tumours with minimally invasive (keyhole) techniques for decompression, discectomy, spinal fusion etc. This follows his many years of research, training and peer-reviewed international presentations and publications focused on spinal surgery.
Additional research and educational interests include the application of technology in Surgery and Medical Education. He has completed his Masters in Surgical Technology at Imperial College, London.
Mr Chaudhary has won national prizes as well as a number of prestigious awards, gold medals and fellowships including the Harry Morton Fellowship from the Royal College of Surgeons of England and the British Association of Spine Surgeons President's Fellowship Award.
