Dr. Soumen Sarkar

Dr. Soumen Sarkar is a Registrar in Clinical Neurosurgery with qualifications that include MBBS, BCS (Health) and MS in Neurosurgery. His specialty involves the clinical assessment of conditions affecting the brain, spine and nervous system. Neurosurgical care may be needed when symptoms or investigation results suggest a structural problem involving the brain, spinal cord or nerves that requires specialist evaluation.

Nerve-related complaints can range from persistent tingling and numbness to weakness, pain or changes in movement. Such symptoms may arise from several causes, including nerve compression, spinal disorders or other neurological conditions. A clinical assessment helps identify the pattern of symptoms and determine whether further investigations are necessary. Depending on the suspected condition, the medical team may review neurological examination findings and imaging such as MRI or CT scans.

Dr. Sarkar's listed chamber is the National Institute of Neurosciences & Hospital in Dhaka. Patients attending a consultation can bring previous investigation reports, scan images, prescriptions and hospital discharge documents. It is helpful to explain when the symptoms began, which parts of the body are affected and whether the problem has changed over time. Patients who have already consulted another doctor should bring any referral notes or treatment records they have.

His MS in Neurosurgery provides postgraduate training relevant to the assessment and management of neurosurgical conditions. Patients planning to visit the hospital should confirm the relevant department and current appointment arrangements beforehand. Sudden weakness, new difficulty speaking, loss of consciousness or rapidly worsening neurological symptoms require emergency medical attention rather than waiting for a scheduled consultation.
