We did start the fire…
This is just a beginning. Everything starts small. Even the giant sequoia.
I’d say this is a log on how we went about constructing this department. Just to remind ourselves the possibilities that keeps shining through.
June 2006 – Dr Roopesh VR and I get appointed as Asst Profs in Neurosurgery. We are however under administrative control of Dept of Surgery since Aps cannot be given administrative control of a dept.
June 2006 – first neurosurgery – L4-5 disc prolapse with cauda equine syndrome. Many thanks to the director Prof KSVK Subbarao , Prof AK Das [MS], Prof Karoon Agarwal [plastic surgery hod] , Prof Jagdish [Hod Surgery] for their support.
July 2006 – 2 beds in CTVS ICU and two more in ward 44.
OT days are Fridays and alternate Tuesdays. That’s too few. Buts that’s life!

Feb 2007 after months and months of toiling on “specifications” on excel files, the first instruments have landed. Our tenure almost got over before that happened! [Just as Dr Ananthakrishnan had warned]
March 2007 – Surgical diathermy, instruments, Leyla retractor system, pneumatic drill are in the purchase pipeline. [a very long one that ]
