A note from Mr. Rath
I am Mr. Narendra Kumar Rath, a Consultant Spinal Surgeon at The Walton Centre, with a specialist focus on spinal pathology. My journey began in the tribal region of Odisha, India, where my parents' service in the Armed Forces instilled in me discipline and a deep regard for people.
I completed my medical education in India before moving to the United Kingdom for advanced surgical training. I hold a Completion of Training (CCT) in Trauma and Orthopaedics, and went on to fellowship at the Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Hospital, where I focused on deformity correction and minimally invasive techniques.
My practice today covers the full spectrum of spinal care, with particular emphasis on endoscopic spinal surgery — keyhole surgery — and deformity correction. At The Walton Centre, a Centre of Excellence in Neurosciences, I have had the privilege of broadening my skills to include the neurosurgical aspects of spinal work.
Beyond the operating theatre, I'm drawn to the history and landscape of the North West, and a long-standing fan of Liverpool football and rugby. I try to bring an easy-going manner to my consultations. The most important thing I can offer any patient is careful judgement: the right treatment for them, no more and no less.
