Dr. Manish Baldia

Dr. Manish Baldia is a Consultant Functional Neurosurgeon based at Wockhardt Hospitals, South Mumbai, with over a decade of experience in treating some of the most complex conditions of the nervous system. He holds an MBBS and a Master of Chirurgiae (MCh) in Neurosurgery — a postgraduate surgical degree that represents the highest level of specialist neurosurgical training in India. Over the course of his career, he has treated more than 3,500 patients, building a practice built on precision, patience, and a genuine commitment to improving quality of life.

Dr. Baldia's clinical focus lies in functional neurosurgery — a subspecialty concerned not just with removing tumours or repairing structures, but with restoring normal function to a nervous system that has gone awry. His areas of particular expertise include Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for movement disorders like Parkinson's disease and dystonia, epilepsy surgery for patients whose seizures have not responded to medication, and surgical management of chronic pain conditions such as trigeminal neuralgia. He also performs microvascular decompression, craniotomies, and peripheral nerve procedures.

Patients and their families often remark on how clearly Dr. Baldia explains complex neurological concepts — making it easier for them to understand their diagnosis and feel confident about the path forward. His approach is thorough and measured: he takes time to review each case carefully before recommending surgery, ensuring that an operation is truly the right option rather than simply an available one.

For international patients exploring treatment in India, Dr. Baldia offers a compelling combination of advanced subspecialty training, broad surgical experience, and the support of a well-equipped tertiary care hospital in Mumbai. GAF Healthcare works directly with his team to coordinate consultations, imaging reviews, and travel logistics — so that getting the right opinion and the right care is as straightforward as possible.
