Over a 50-year career spanning India and Saudi Arabia, Dr. Mone has managed a vast range of complex neurosurgical cases including brain tumours, cerebrovascular emergencies, congenital malformations, and spinal pathology — at institutions including NIMS Hyderabad, SVMC Tirupati, and King Fahad Central Hospital, Gizan, Saudi Arabia.

A child presenting with hydrocephalus and raised intracranial pressure was managed with ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement under Dr. Mone's care, achieving resolution of symptoms and normal developmental trajectory at follow-up — reflecting his extensive experience with congenital CNS malformation management.

Patient-Centred Care

Dr. Mone's five-decade career reflects a commitment to comprehensive neurosurgical care driven by genuine concern for his patients — a value explicitly stated in his professional profile. His international experience across Indian government hospitals, leading Saudi Arabian centres, and multiple Indian medical colleges has equipped him with a breadth of clinical exposure that underpins his practice at Pace Hospitals, Hyderabad. He communicates with patients in a calm, reassuring manner — particularly important for families facing serious neurological diagnoses.

Technology & Innovation

Dr. Mone employs microsurgical disc extraction, craniotomy with modern intraoperative techniques, VP shunt placement for hydrocephalus, peripheral nerve surgery, and cerebrovascular surgical procedures. His dual FRCS from Glasgow and Edinburgh — obtained in 1977 at internationally recognised neurosurgical training centres — provides the technical foundation for his surgical practice. He continues to practice at Pace Hospitals, Hyderabad's modern tertiary neurosurgical facility.
