The best gift I got in my life is, I have found Dr. Shumayou Dutta and his priceless consultation.
I was suffering from low back pain for the last 5,6 years. For the first few years pain is limited in between the lower back of the left side. The pain increases if I walk too much, then after rest pain decreases. Also, the pain increased after 1hr lying in bed but in the morning pain decreases.
I have visited several doctors in Kolkata private and government hospitals, orthopaedic, physiotherapist, and neurologist, all doctors misguided me, someone said I have to operate because my nerves are bulging due to L5 over S1, and some doctors give me painkillers.
After 5-6 years the pain moved down to my thighs of both legs and the pain is very severe.
All my friends and, relatives are telling me to go out of state, Vellore, Bangalore.
At this point of time, I found Dr. Shumayou Dutta in some online portal, I read the reviews and think let's take a last chance before going out of state.
Dr. Shumayou's technique of treating a patient is very different, he listened to my history and told me after the first observation that the pain is not coming from nerve bulging. He told me to start the diagnosis from the beginning and ask me for some blood tests, MRIs. After checking the reports he confirmed that the disease is ankylosing spondylitis. He described the decease to me and suggested that this disease's main treatment is exercise and suggest me to consult me with a Rheumatologist.
Now I do exercise as per his suggestion from the last few months and taking medicine suggested by Rheumatologist. I am totally fit now. Thank you, doctor. *** *** * **** *** ** ***
I suggest anyone who has an orthopaedic or nerve-related or pain-related problem, you can consult with Dr. Shumayou Dutta. He will guide you on the right path.

This is during my recovery from fractured tibia & fibula of my left leg from accident, in the 2nd week I have noticed that I have numbness in my right toe and having difficulty in pulling my ankle upward accompanied with radiating pain from lower back down to my right leg till toe (seems sciatica). This has continued for around a week. I have consulted a spine surgeon in Apollo Gleneagles who suggested me an MRI. After looking at MRI report he has advised microsurgical discectomy because of herniated disc. I was reluctant to go for a second operation as I was recuperating from fractured leg operation a fortnight back. I have taken two more opinion, one from a neurosurgeon in AMRI & second from a spine specialist in MEDICA Superspeciality Hospital. After discussion with Dr. Shumayou Dutta my family and my colleague got confidence that things will be alright after the surgery. Dr. Shumayou Dutta has suggested micro endoscopic discectomy which is minimally invasive and recovery period is a day or less. Dr. has taken time to go through my entire report and has made my family understand looking at the MRI plate as where is the problem and the time frame by when I can go for the surgery. In between this time I was also doing my research on the L5-S1 discectomy cases, best hospitals & Doctors in Google. I was quite impressed by the reviews/testimonials & positive feedback of the Patients for Dr. Shumayou Dutta who has many awards & research papers to his credit apart from the professional membership/fellowship he holds on the subject. After getting confidence, I have planned to go for this surgery on 27th March 2019 which went quite well. I have got immediate relief from pain, numbness almost gone and I am having much strength in my leg. Needless to mention the mental relief I have got after this surgery. I would definitely recommend Dr. Shumayou Dutta to my known people/wellwishers if they come across any difficulty or having any issue related to Spine.

Visited For Spine Injury
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issue
It was a wonderful experience. I had read about Dr. Shumayou Dutta in Practo. I decided to visit him based on the reviews.
My friend and I were having backaches where my friend was already diagnosed with spine stenosis in 2012. On reaching, Dr patiently listened to the entire story, went through all the reports properly and examined my friend in detail. We got a fresh MRI done then and there. It was so sweet of Dr. Dutta to wait till we come back with the plates. Then he explained all the reports and the present scenario in detail. This is something that makes him distinguished from others. No doctor today usually has time to explain everything to the patient. Then he also listed all the do's and don'ts in the prescription. No doctor does this also. He also advised us to get us insured because a spine surgery if required later in life will cost us a hefty sum.
Precisely, he is unlike conventional doctors who just see and write a prescription. He went out of his way to guide us properly. Extremely satisfied we are and we definitely recommend Dr. Dutta for any kind of neck and spine problem.
Visited For Sciatica

i didn't know that a spine surgery existed as an independent speciality from orthopedics or neurosurgery. he was recommended to me by a relative who was very satisfied with his treatment. numerous visits to doctors who recommended me to wear a belt had made me dependant on it and back pain was always present. For the first time i felt a doctor could understand and explain to me what was going on with me and his treatment has helped me deal with it much better. i do not use a belt any more and the pain has reduced significantly with the exercises he has taught me. Highly recommend.

My son had a herniated disc and was unable to walk with constant pain and numbness. He lives in Canada and had travelled all the way to India to get this fixed due to the long waits in Canda due to the public healthcare system. We luckily came across Dr. Dutta and it was such a blessing. Doctor sent my son home the next day after surgery and my son's pain has almost completely disappered. We would highly recommend Dr. Dutta for his professionalism and care towards his patients. He has such a friendly personality and takes the time to explain each and every thing to his patients. We will be forver greateful to Dr.Dutta for fixing my son's problem. HIGHLY RECOMMEND you see Dr. Dutta for a quick recovery. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Visited For Slip Disc
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
My mother had been suffering from slip disc condition for the past 15 years. We consulted a good number of doctors but nothing seemed to work. We were suggested to go for a surgery but we were always sceptical due to the risks involved.
Dr. Shumayou Dutta appeared on one of my Google searches for good spine surgeons in Kolkata. I found his academic and professional credentials quite convincing and decided to pay a visit in his clinic.
He was spot on at diagnosing the issue and clearly explained the situation we were in and the options that we had. My mother claimed to feel much more confident about the surgery, so we went along with it.
Throughout the whole process, starting from the first day at his clinic till the day my mother was discharged from the hospital (post surgery), Dr.Dutta was more helpful and diligent than we expected.
I am am glad to have trusted his advice. He is an absolute Gem of a person *** * ******* *************
