Our team of anaesthesiologists is not only experienced at administering anaesthesia before surgeries but also at delivering instant pain relief using the latest technology.
This extensive and updated knowledge in the field of pain relief medicine is called Interventional Anaesthesiology. Our experts use this medical approach to provide instant pain relief for specific medical conditions that would have required surgery. By breaking the pain cycle, patients are given a better chance of successful rehabilitation. These pain relief measures are achieved using a fluoroscope (or a C-arm), a CT scan, or a simple ultrasound scan.
