Brief Profile  

Dr Kanwaljeet Garg is an AIIMS alumnus. He joined AIIMS, New Delhi, the most prestigious and competitive medical school in India in 2001. He further completed M.Ch. Neurosurgery residency (6 years) from AIIMS, New Delhi itself. He had an excellent academic and surgical record throughout his residency training with many publications in both national and international journals in residency. He has also presented his work at various scientific meetings in India and abroad. He was awarded the ISPN travelling fellowship to present his research. He has also won the first prize for “micro suturing and microneural anastomosis” and “high speed drilling” at the 13th Neurosurgery skills training workshop held at AIIMS.

After completing his neurosurgical residency, he joined a one year long clinical fellowship “Combined Spine Surgery” at the Cumming School of Medicine, University of Calgary, Calgary (Canada), under the mentorship of world-renowned spine surgeons like Prof John Hurlbert and Prof Jacques Bouchard. He refined his skills in spine surgery during this fellowship and also learned the art of minimal invasive spine surgery at a high-volume centre. He was about to start another fellowship in spine surgery with Prof Richard Fessler at Rush University, Chicago (USA) but he got selected and joined as an Assistant Professor, Department of Neurosurgery at AIIMS in July 2015. Currently, he is working as an Additional Professor in the same department. He is well versed in all aspects of neurosurgery with special interest in Spine surgery, surgery for Movement disorders and Stereotactic Radiosurgery (Gamma Knife). He has keen research interest and has been working on many projects. He has keen interest in research and has about 250 publications in renowned international and national journals. Considering this, he was invited to be a Section Editor for the journal World Neurosurgery. He is also an Associate Editor for the Frontiers in Surgery,Neurology India and Indian Journal of Neurotrauma.
