On the occasion of World Brain Day, Paras Health Panchkula reaffirmed its commitment to advancing neurological care by calling for greater public awareness and early detection of brain-related disorders. In alignment with this year’s global theme, ‘Brain Health for All Ages,’ the hospital underscored the life-saving importance of timely diagnosis and intervention.
With a noticeable rise in neurological conditions such as stroke, epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, and dementia, particularly among urban, sedentary, and aging populations, Paras Health Panchkula has significantly expanded its focus on comprehensive brain health services. Dr Deepak Gupta, Senior Director, Neurology, Paras Health Panchkula, on the importance of timely action in neurological care, said, “When it comes to brain-related conditions particularly stroke, time is everything.
Every minute lost can mean more damage to the brain—damage that may not be reversible. One of the biggest challenges we face is that people don’t realize how urgent these situations are. They delay coming to the hospital, thinking it’s not serious. However, in stroke, even a short delay can decide whether someone walks again, speaks again, or lives without lifelong support.
We need to create more awareness about acting fast and trusting medical help without hesitation in stroke.” Dr Anurag Lamba, Director, Neurology, Paras Health Panchkula added, “Brain health isn’t just a concern for the elderly it affects people of all age groups.
With increasing screen time, stress and erratic lifestyles, even younger individuals are experiencing migraines, anxiety and sleep disorders at an alarming rate. Preventive neurology and lifestyle changes, including mental well being and digital detox, should become part of regular health routines.
Raising awareness around these issues is key to protecting brain health in the long run.” Driven by the increasing burden of neurological disorders in India—fueled by longer life expectancy, chronic stress, and limited awareness—Paras Health Panchkula has enhanced its neurosciences department to deliver timely, multidisciplinary care.
The hospital is equipped with advanced neuroimaging tools, specialized ICUs, and a team of experienced neurologists, neurosurgeons, and rehabilitation experts. Its services span acute stroke intervention, long-term management of neurodegenerative diseases, brain and spine surgeries, and personalized neuro-rehabilitation programs—ensuring patients receive expert care across every stage of treatment.
To promote early detection and community involvement, the hospital has also launched routine brain health screenings and public education initiatives. It continues to offer advanced procedures, including stroke management, minimally invasive spine surgeries, and brain tumor interventions.
By combining cutting-edge technology with clinical depth and a patient-first approach, Paras Health remains at the forefront of neurological care, working to ensure healthier outcomes and improved quality of life for individuals across all age groups.
