Wockhardt Hospital's Spine Services Department has a multidisciplinary program with a dedicated team of highly experienced spine surgeons, neuro physicians, pain block experts, physiotherapists, and rehabilitation experts. Wockhardt Hospitals has one of the best state-of-the-art equipment, world-class infrastructure, and diagnostic services. Digital radiography x-rays, MRI, CT scan, CAT scan, Electromyography, Nerve Conduction Velocity, and other diagnostic tests for spinal issues are available at the hospital.

At the hospital, modern treatment modalities for spinal issues include pedicular fixation (using screws, interbody cage PLIF, TLIF, ALIF, artificial disc replacement, spinal osteotomies and fusions, vertebral column resection, and minimally invasive and endoscopic surgeries). Expert spine surgeons perform a laminectomy, a surgical procedure used to remove areas of the vertebral bones called the lamina, in the hospital. During the procedure, the back muscles are pushed sideways, and sections of the vertebra adjacent to the lamina are left intact. It's also known as a decompression surgery. It relieves pressure on the spinal nerves and spinal cord. This procedure is commonly used to treat spinal stenosis. Computer-guided navigation systems are available with other high-tech instruments such as the 3D C-arm. Wockhardt Hospital's spine surgeons include Dr. Shekhar Bhojraj, Dr. Abhay Nene, and Dr. Premik Nagad.
