Dr Deepak Ravindran
Pain Management
About
He has over 20 years of experience in the clinical field of pain management and is an active physician researcher with teaching roles at Teesside University and Reading University. He has served as the Clinical Lead for Pain Medicine at Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust where he was a consultant from 2010 to 2024. He also set up and led the Berkshire Long COVID NHS Service from 2020 to 2024. With over 20 years of specialist experience, he is uniquely qualified as the only physician in the Thames Valley to hold formal qualifications in Pain Medicine, Musculoskeletal (MSK) Medicine, and Lifestyle Medicine, placing him among a small number of clinicians in England with this rare combination of expertise.
Dr Ravindran completed his undergraduate medical training at JIPMER in India, followed by postgraduate training in Oxford. He undertook advanced anaesthesia and pain management training in both India and the UK, including specialist pain medicine fellowships at University College London, the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital in Stanmore, and the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery. He also holds international qualifications in interventional pain practice, including Fellowship of Interventional Pain Practice (FIPP) from the USA and the European Diploma in Pain Medicine interventions (EDRA) and more recently Board certified in Lifestyle medicine by the British Society of Lifestyle Medicine.
His clinical philosophy centres on early intervention and the appropriate use of multidisciplinary trauma informed lifestyle medicine focussed care to prevent pain becoming chronic. His clinics provide comprehensive diagnostic and investigative assessments supported by close collaboration with physiotherapy and psychology specialists. Alongside evidence-based medication management, Dr Ravindran performs a wide range of image-guided interventional procedures, including epidural, facet joint and sacroiliac joint injections, radiofrequency lesioning, sympathetic blocks and peripheral nerve blocks using X-ray and ultrasound guidance.
Dr Ravindran has a strong interest in lifestyle medicine and the role of diet, nutrition, sleep, stress management and other non-drug-based therapies in chronic pain. He adopts a trauma-informed, “upstreamist” approach to pain care and has been instrumental in developing innovative services, including the award-winning NHS Integrated Pain and Self-Management Service (IPASS) and the Berkshire Long COVID Integrated Service (BLIS). From August 2024, he has focused on supporting primary care through sustainable delivery models such as group consultations and the integration of lifestyle medicine into routine pain care.
He is the author of the Amazon bestseller The Pain Free Mindset, written for patients, the public and healthcare professionals, exploring modern, evidence-based approaches to understanding and overcoming pain. Dr Ravindran is a regular national and international conference speaker and is deeply committed to improving pain education for both patients and healthcare professionals, frequently delivering teaching sessions for GPs and multidisciplinary teams.
In addition to his NHS and private practice at Berkshire Pain Clinic, Dr Ravindran is partnering with The London Psychiatry Centre to deliver an integrated pain and lifestyle medicine service. This collaborative model recognises the close relationship between chronic pain, mental health and trauma, combining pain medicine with neuromodulation approaches such as rTMS, trauma-informed consultations, nervous system regulation, sleep optimisation, movement confidence and long-term recovery planning for conditions including fibromyalgia, migraine and selected neuropathic pain disorders.
“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”
