Dr. Harish Chandra L S is one of India’s most distinctively qualified Paediatric Neurosurgeons, practising at Dr. Mehta’s Hospitals, Chennai. His credential profile is exceptional by any global standard, MCh (Neurosurgery), FRCS (Neurosurgery) from the Royal College of Surgeons, a Fellowship in Paediatric Neurosurgery trained across both the United Kingdom and Israel, and an additional Fellowship in Functional Neurosurgery from the UK. This combination of British and Israeli fellowship training places him among a very select group of paediatric neurosurgeons in India with truly international subspecialty expertise.

The FRCS (Neurosurgery) is one of the most rigorous surgical qualifications in the world, awarded by the Royal College of Surgeons and requiring demonstrated mastery of neurosurgical knowledge and operative competence assessed against UK standards. Dr. Harish Chandra’s Paediatric Neurosurgery fellowship across two internationally renowned centres, in the UK and Israel, further refines this expertise specifically to the surgical management of children’s brain and spine conditions. His additional Fellowship in Functional Neurosurgery reflects advanced training in procedures such as Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), a highly specialised intervention used for movement disorders and treatment-resistant epilepsy, a skill possessed by very few neurosurgeons in India.

For families across Chennai and South India seeking expert neurosurgical evaluation for a child — whether for epilepsy surgery, a brain tumour, hydrocephalus, a congenital brain anomaly, or a complex movement disorder requiring DBS, Dr. Harish Chandra L S at Dr. Mehta’s Hospitals represents access to internationally trained, subspecialty-level paediatric neurosurgical care. Consultations are available by prior appointment.
