About Dr. V.K. Jain
Dr. V.K. Jain is one of India's most respected neurosurgeons, with over 35 years spent caring for patients with some of the most complex conditions of the brain and spine. As Principal Director of Neurosurgery at Max Super Speciality Hospital, Saket, he brings rare depth of experience to procedures like brain tumor surgery, cerebrovascular surgery, skull base surgery, and craniovertebral junction surgery — areas where precision and expertise genuinely matter.
His training journey spans continents. After completing his MBBS at King George Medical College, Lucknow, and his MCh in Neurosurgery at NIMHANS, Bangalore, Dr. Jain pursued a micro-neurosurgery fellowship at Fujita Health University in Japan. He went on to attend specialized workshops in stereotactic techniques at the Karolinska Hospital in Stockholm, advanced radiosurgery training at a Gamma Knife centre in Japan, and has served as a Visiting Professor at institutions in Switzerland and Japan. This global exposure shaped a surgical philosophy that is both technically rigorous and deeply patient-centred.
Throughout his career, Dr. Jain has held senior leadership roles that reflect the trust his peers place in him. He served as Chairman of Neurosurgery at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital and as Past President of the Neurological Society of India, the Skull Base Surgery Society of India, and the Indian Society of Cerebro-Vascular Surgery, among other professional bodies. These roles speak to a career built not just in the operating room, but in shaping the field itself.
For international patients and their families, choosing a neurosurgeon from abroad can feel daunting. Dr. Jain's combination of world-class training, decades of hands-on experience, and a calm, communicative approach helps families feel supported at every step. GAF Healthcare works directly with his team at Max Saket to coordinate appointments, medical records review, and travel logistics — so you can focus on what matters most.
