About

Mr Jibin Francis is a Consultant Neurosurgeon, with an interest in spinal neurosurgery. He is the lead for Spinal surgery at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge, and the Clinical Lead for the East of England Spinal Network. He treats a wide range of spinal conditions, including those arising from the intervertebral discs, nerve or spinal cord compression, spinal injuries, tumours, and infections. He also has a special interest in the neurosurgical management of conditions related to spinal fluid flow, including spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH), Chiari malformation, syringomyelia, and arachnoid webs and cysts.

Minimally invasive (keyhole) surgical techniques are employed in the majority of the operations he performs for disc prolapse and spinal stenosis, and, in 2023, Jibin introduced full endoscopic spinal surgery in Cambridge as an extension of these principles. These techniques deliver the same surgical results with the least possible trauma to surrounding tissues.

He completed fellowships at the John Radcliffe in Oxford, and a combined orthopaedic and neurosurgical spinal fellowship in Cambridge.  Prior to this, Jibin ran a busy neurosurgical practice in South Africa from 2012,  treating the vast majority of brain and spinal conditions requiring surgery, until deciding to focus on complex spinal conditions and advanced techniques in 2017.

Jibin is directly involved in neurosurgical training at both undergraduate (serving as speciality lead for Neurosurgical teaching) and postgraduate levels. He is a faculty member on various national neurosurgical courses.

“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”
