About Dr. Suranjana Basak
Dr. Suranjana Basak is a Consultant Neurologist based at Medicover Hospitals in Navi Mumbai, with over a decade of hands-on clinical experience. She works across a broad spectrum of neurological conditions — from stroke and epilepsy to movement disorders and chronic headaches — with a strong focus on evidence-based, personalised care. Patients and their families often appreciate that she takes time to explain what is happening in the brain or nervous system in plain, human language, so they can genuinely understand their diagnosis and feel confident about their next steps.
Dr. Basak's training reflects both depth and breadth. She holds an MD and DNB in Internal Medicine, a DrNB in Neurology, and a postgraduate diploma in Advanced Diabetes Care and Clinical Endocrinology from the Royal College of Physicians, UK — an addition that gives her particular insight into the neurological complications of diabetes, such as diabetic neuropathy. Her career has taken her through respected institutions across India, including Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital, Homi Bhabha Cancer Hospital and Research Centre, and frontline Covid-19 ICU care during the pandemic — experiences that have sharpened her clinical judgment across high-pressure settings.
What patients value most about Dr. Basak is her calm, thorough approach. She believes that good neurology isn't just about treating a symptom — it's about understanding each person's lifestyle, risk factors, and long-term goals. She places real emphasis on preventive neurology and early risk detection, working alongside a multidisciplinary team at a NABH-accredited facility to ensure care is both safe and sustainable.
For international patients, Dr. Basak offers the reassurance of a specialist who communicates clearly, coordinates efficiently with a dedicated support team, and practices at a hospital equipped with advanced neurological diagnostics. Whether you are travelling to Navi Mumbai for a second opinion, ongoing management of a complex condition, or time-sensitive stroke care, GAF Healthcare can help you connect with Dr. Basak and plan every step of your journey.
