Discuss your care options →Understanding your options
Most people with epilepsy are treated with medicines. When seizures continue despite appropriate medicines (drug-resistant epilepsy), a specialist epilepsy programme may assess surgery. Evaluation identifies where seizures start using video-EEG monitoring, MRI, and other tests, then considers resective surgery, ablation, neuromodulation such as vagus nerve stimulation, or dietary therapy.

Questions for your consultation
- Has my epilepsy been confirmed as drug-resistant?
- Where do my seizures start, and how confident is the team?
- What is the realistic chance of better seizure control, and what are the risks to memory or language?
Cost of Epilepsy Surgery in India
An individual estimate needs a defined plan and provider review. Ask for a written breakdown rather than comparing package names alone.
- Length of inpatient video-EEG monitoring and additional tests
- Type of surgery or implanted device
- Hospital stay, rehabilitation, and follow-up EEGs
Confirm what is included, quotation validity, possible additional charges, and cancellation terms. Allow separately for accommodation, travel, local transfers, coordination fees, and care after returning home.
Recovery and follow-up planning
Pre-surgical evaluation can take more than one visit. Medicines usually continue after surgery and are reviewed over time. Arrange local neurology follow-up and check driving and work rules in your country.
Common questions
People whose seizures continue despite adequate trials of suitable medicines are often referred to a specialist epilepsy centre.
Not immediately. Any reduction is decided by the treating neurologist over time.
