With over 14+ Years (11+ Years Specialized Neurosurgery) of dedicated clinical practice, Dr. Prashank Goel is a consultant neurosurgeon providing comprehensive brain, spine, and neurovascular care in Kanpur. Having completed his surgical education at premier medical institutions in India, his clinical practice is founded on thorough diagnostic evaluations, objective clinical examinations, and transparent patient communication.

After completing his Master of Surgery (MS) at GSVM Medical College Kanpur, Dr. Goel earned his super-speciality degree—MCh in Neurosurgery—from the prestigious G.B. Pant Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research (GIPMER) in New Delhi. His intensive super-speciality training provided extensive clinical and operative experience across microscopic cranial surgery, keyhole spine techniques, and neurovascular interventions.

His clinical approach is firmly conservative-first: surgery is considered only when evidence-based non-surgical pathways are exhausted or when neurological function is at risk. For many spine and nerve conditions, Dr. Goel prioritizes structured physiotherapy, targeted medications, and ergonomic modifications. When surgery is clinically indicated, he utilizes modern keyhole corridors, operative microscopes, and intraoperative monitoring to protect neural structures and support recovery.

Currently serving as Associate Director & Head - Department of Neuro Sciences at Paras Health Kanpur, Dr. Goel manages acute brain and spine trauma emergencies, complex cranial resections, and specialized spine outpatient clinics, providing compassionate, unhurried guidance to patients and families.

Modern Neurosurgical Precision Suite - Dr. Prashank Goel
Doctor's Ethical Approach

Surgery Is a Decision. Not the First Step.

In neurosurgery, the right treatment begins with a detailed evaluation of your symptoms, clinical examination and imaging. Surgery is advised only when it is truly necessary.

01

Thorough Evaluation First

We review your history, examination and imaging to understand the real cause of your symptoms.

02

Conservative Care When Possible

Non-surgical options, medications and lifestyle modifications are prioritized before surgery.

03

Precision When Needed

If surgery is indicated, advanced microsurgical techniques are used to ensure safe and effective treatment.
