Doctor Profile

I have been fortunate to be trained in Spine Surgery by two of the most renowned Spine Surgeons and teachers – Dr Abhay Nene and Dr Shekhar Bhojraj. Under their guidance and mentor ship my basics and advanced spine surgery skill have become stronger and more polished. I have learned from them the way to handle a patient as well as how to make the best decision in the interest of the patient. My objective is to now take these skills learned from them to newer heights for the benefit of patients who have spinal ailments which may require spine surgery or could be handled without a surgery as well. Being competent and confident to do complex spinal surgeries which range from the conventional open surgeries to the newer advanced micro and minimally invasive surgeries for all types of spinal ailments, I would be able to help pts with my knowledge and skills.
