Dr. Avinash Kulkarni’s Speciality

  • Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) Surgery

Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a medical treatment that delivers mild electrical impulses to the vagus nerve to alter brain activity.

  • Cerebral Aneurysm

A cerebral aneurysm is a weak, bulging spot in the wall of a brain artery that balloons outward and fills with blood. Often resembling a berry hanging from a stem, it poses a severe health risk because it can leak or rupture, causing life-threatening bleeding into the brain known as a subarachnoid hemorrhage.

  • Epilepsy

Epilepsy is a common chronic brain disorder characterized by recurring, unprovoked seizures. It happens when abnormal electrical signals in the brain cause sudden bursts of activity. This affects how a person moves, thinks, or behaves for a short time.

  • Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a long-lasting autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. The immune system attacks myelin, the protective coating around nerve fibers in the brain and spinal cord, which slows down or blocks messages between the body and the brain.

  • Parkinson’s Disease

Parkinson’s disease is a slow, long-term brain disorder that affects your movement. It happens when nerve cells in the brain stop making enough dopamine, a chemical that helps control body movements.

  • Migraines

A migraine is a common neurological disorder causing intense, throbbing head pain, often on one side. Attacks last 4 to 72 hours and include nausea, vomiting, and extreme sensitivity to light and sound.

  • Myasthenia Gravis

Myasthenia gravis is a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disease that causes severe weakness in voluntary skeletal muscles.

  • Autoimmune disorders

An autoimmune disorder is a condition where your immune system mistakenly attacks healthy cells, tissues, and organs in your body. Normally, the immune system guards against foreign invaders like bacteria and viruses.

  • Meningitis

Meningitis is the acute or chronic inflammation of the protective membranes (meninges) surrounding the brain and spinal cord.

  • Neurodegenerative disorders

Neurodegenerative diseases are incurable conditions where nerve cells in the brain and nervous system progressively lose function and die. Common types include Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

  • Alzheimer’s disease

Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive brain disorder that slowly destroys memory, thinking skills, and the ability to do simple tasks. It is the most common cause of dementia.

  • Tremors

A tremor is an involuntary, rhythmic shaking movement in one or more parts of the body. It is primarily a neurological symptom caused by a disruption in the deep brain structures that control muscle movements.

  • Cerebral Palsy

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a group of permanent movement and posture disorders caused by abnormal brain development or damage to the developing brain before, during, or shortly after birth.

  • Neuromuscular Disorders

Neuromuscular disorders are medical conditions that impair the function of voluntary muscles, either directly or through damage to the peripheral nerves, motor neurons, or the neuromuscular junction.

  • Autism

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a lifelong neurodevelopmental condition that fundamentally shapes how a person perceives, interacts, and communicates with the world.
