My father had back and leg pain for many months. He could not even stand for long. Dr. Tanmay Avhad first did a full check and explained everything to us clearly. After endoscopic surgery, my father started walking the next day and came home soon. Many thanks to doctor sir.
I had a slipped disc and severe sciatica for almost 6 months. I was scared of spine surgery, but Dr. Tanmay explained every option clearly. He first tried medicines and an injection, and when that did not help, he did endoscopic surgery through a very small cut. I was back at my desk job in a few weeks.
I had constant neck pain and tingling in my hands. Dr. Tanmay checked my MRI and told me exactly where the pain was coming from. Without any surgery, just with an injection and physiotherapy, I got good relief. He talks very calmly and makes you feel at ease.
My mother is 72 and has diabetes, so other doctors said open surgery would be risky for her. Dr. Tanmay suggested endoscopic surgery under local anaesthesia. The whole process was smooth, she was walking the next day and discharged within 2 days. We are very thankful to him and his team.
My brother had a spine fracture in an accident and we were very scared. Dr. Tanmay did the surgery quickly and supported us at every step. Now my brother is slowly walking on his own again.
I had back surgery elsewhere 3 years ago, but the pain came back. I had almost lost hope. Dr. Tanmay found the exact cause and treated it with a revision endoscopic procedure. He is very patient, answers every question and truly cares about his patients.
Dr. Tanmay offers complete spine care, from medicines and physiotherapy guidance to image-guided spine injections, uniportal full endoscopic spine surgery, minimally invasive and endoscopic fusion, revision spine surgery, and treatment for spine fractures, infections and tumours.

He treats back pain, neck pain, slipped disc, sciatica, spinal stenosis, spine fractures, spinal infections, spinal tumours and pain that continues after an earlier spine surgery.
Endoscopic spine surgery is done through a small cut of about 8mm using a thin camera. The surgeon can see the nerves and the problem clearly on a screen and treat it with very little damage to muscles and bones. Most patients walk the same or next day and go home within 24 to 36 hours.
No. Most spine problems get better with medicines, physiotherapy or image-guided injections. Dr. Tanmay first finds the real source of your pain and suggests surgery only when it is truly needed.
