Dr. Raghava Dutt Mulukutla — Consultant Spine Surgeon in Hyderabad

Dr. Raghava Dutt Mulukutla is a Consultant Spine Surgeon at Apollo Hospital, Jubilee Hills, in Hyderabad, with more than 35 years of experience in spine surgery.

His list covers the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine. The reconstructive work covers spinal fusion surgery, disc replacement surgery and spinal deformity correction, and the decompression work discectomy, endoscopic spine surgery and spinal stenosis surgery. He also operates on spinal tumours and spinal trauma, and spondylolisthesis is among the conditions treated.

He holds MBBS, an MS in orthopedics, the FRCS, and an M.Ch in orthopedics. The FRCS alongside two Indian master's qualifications in the same specialty means his orthopaedic training was examined in two systems before the spine practice took shape.

His record outside the operating theatre is office in the specialty's own institutions. He was President of the Association of Spine Surgeons of India from 2017 to 2019, the national body for the specialty, and is Vice President of the Orthopaedic Association of South Indian States. He is also Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of OASIS, so he holds both an executive and an editorial role within the regional association.

Holding the presidency of the national spine association for a full two-year term, while editing a regional orthopaedic journal, describes a surgeon whose colleagues have placed him at the centre of the specialty rather than one working only within his own hospital. He practises at Apollo Hospital in Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad.
