Spine Surgery
Spine surgery is one of the areas where advice differs most between surgeons, and where a careful independent review before you commit is most useful. We arrange remote reviews of your MRI and symptoms with spine surgeons in our network, and coordinate surgery and early rehabilitation in India if you decide to proceed.
We take no commissions from hospitals. Our fees are paid by you, published upfront, and itemized separately from your hospital bill. Full details on the Fees page.
Conditions we coordinate care for
- Disc herniation with sciatica or arm pain
- Lumbar canal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
- Cervical disc disease and myelopathy
- Spondylolisthesis (slipped vertebra)
- Scoliosis and spinal deformity, adolescent and adult
- Osteoporotic vertebral fractures
- Spinal tumors and infections (coordinated with oncology and infection specialists)
Procedures & services we coordinate
- Microdiscectomy and endoscopic discectomy
- Laminectomy and decompression for canal stenosis
- Spinal fusion (TLIF, PLIF, ACDF) where instability requires it
- Cervical and lumbar artificial disc replacement evaluation
- Scoliosis and deformity correction surgery
- Kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty for vertebral fractures
- Structured post-operative physiotherapy planning for your stay and for home
How a written second opinion works here
Most cases start here: a structured review of your records before anyone talks about travel. Sometimes the honest conclusion is that treatment close to home makes the most sense, and the opinion will say so.

Share your records securely
After we connect, we send you a secure link for your reports, imaging and prescriptions. Nothing sensitive goes through the website form. Your most recent documents are usually enough to start; we will ask for older ones only if the specialist needs them.

An independent specialist reviews your case
A doctor from our network who works in this field, not a call-center agent, reads your file against the treatment you have been advised. Where the records are incomplete, you are told exactly which test or report is missing before any conclusion is drawn.

You receive a written opinion to keep and share
A written document addressed to you: whether the advised treatment is in line with accepted practice, what the alternatives are, and the questions worth asking your treating doctor. It is meant to be shared with your own doctor, and it never replaces them.
