About

Mr Ankur Saxena is a Consultant Neurosurgeon specialising in the diagnosis and treatment of spinal disorders and neurotrauma. He offers both surgical and non-surgical management for a wide range of spinal conditions, with a focus on providing personalised treatment plans tailored to each patient’s needs.
Mr Saxena recognises that many spinal conditions can be effectively managed without surgery. When surgical intervention is required, he aims to use minimally invasive and endoscopic techniques wherever possible. These advanced approaches are designed to minimise tissue disruption, support faster recovery and reduce the risk of complications. He has trained in these techniques with leading experts internationally and continues to collaborate with colleagues across Europe and the United States to share knowledge and stay at the forefront of developments in spinal surgery.
He places strong emphasis on multidisciplinary care, particularly when managing complex spinal conditions. Working alongside experienced colleagues in both NHS and private healthcare settings, he regularly participates in multidisciplinary team discussions to ensure that patients benefit from comprehensive and well-considered treatment plans. His surgical practice also incorporates modern technologies such as neuronavigation, neurophysiological monitoring and spinal endoscopy to improve surgical precision and safety.
In addition to his clinical work, Mr Saxena is actively involved in neurosurgical education and training. He serves as the Director of Neurosurgical Training for his region and is an examiner for the final Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons (FRCS) neurosurgical examination, which is required for neurosurgical trainees to qualify as consultants in the United Kingdom. Through these roles he contributes to the development of the next generation of neurosurgeons while ensuring he remains closely engaged with the latest advances in his field.

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