My father needs DBS surgery and I'm looking for the best hospitals and doctors who can do it at an affordable cost. Can you suggest some good options? Also, do you know how much the surgery costs at AIIMS Delhi?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
All major Hospitals doing regular DBS surgeries are good. Cost will be more or less same in all hospitals as the major cost involved will be the device and battery cost. You will have to contact the doctor in the specific hospital to know the exact cost. On an average of would cost around 8 lakhs to 20 lakhs depending on the hospital.

My grandfather is 83 and had a fall in the bathroom that caused a blood clot in his brain. The doctors are recommending surgery, but I'm worried can surgery really fix this at his age? Is it safe for him to go through the procedure? Would really appreciate your advice.
Sorry to hear about situation. Age is not the only factor, surgery and outcome depends on his general health, state of his heart function. Please discuss with physician and neurosurgeon.
