“Relief from back and neck pain through expert spine care.”
Back and neck pain affects millions of people, and while most cases improve with conservative treatment, some require surgical intervention. At Shrey Hospital’s Spine Surgery department, we provide comprehensive care for spine conditions including herniated discs, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, and more. Our spine surgeons explore non-surgical options first, recommending surgery only when necessary and using techniques that minimise tissue disruption for faster recovery.
We Believe In
We believe in exhausting conservative options before considering surgery — but when surgery is needed, we provide expert care that relieves pain and restores function.

From conservative treatment through surgery if needed — comprehensive spine care
Spine Surgeon in Ahmedabad — Back & Neck Pain Treatment
Spine surgery addresses conditions affecting the vertebrae, discs, nerves, and spinal cord that cause back pain, leg pain (sciatica), neck pain, and arm pain. At Shrey Hospital in Ahmedabad, our spine surgery team treats conditions including herniated discs (slipped disc), spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, and degenerative disc disease. We emphasise conservative treatment first — medications, physiotherapy, and injections — recommending surgery only when these approaches fail and symptoms significantly impact quality of life.
When surgery is necessary, we use minimally invasive techniques whenever appropriate. Microdiscectomy for herniated discs uses a small incision and microscope to remove disc material pressing on nerves. Minimally invasive spinal fusion stabilises the spine through smaller incisions with less muscle disruption. These techniques mean less post-operative pain, smaller scars, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery. Our goal is relieving your pain and getting you back to normal activities.

- Our Approach
Your Spine Care Journey
From conservative treatment through surgery if needed — comprehensive spine care
1
Evaluation & Conservative Treatment
Your journey begins with thorough evaluation including history, physical examination, and imaging (MRI, X-ray). We start with conservative treatment — medications, physiotherapy, activity modification, and possibly injections. Most patients improve without surgery.
2
Surgical Consultation if Needed
If conservative treatment doesn't provide adequate relief after an appropriate trial, we discuss surgical options. We explain the recommended procedure, expected outcomes, risks, and recovery. We answer your questions and help you make an informed decision about surgery.
3
Spine Surgery
If you proceed with surgery, it's performed using the most appropriate technique — often minimally invasive. The procedure addresses the specific problem — removing disc material, decompressing nerves, or stabilising the spine. Our surgical techniques focus on achieving goals while minimising tissue disruption.
4
Recovery & Rehabilitation
After surgery, you begin rehabilitation to restore strength and flexibility. We manage pain effectively to keep you comfortable while moving. Most patients return to desk work within 2-4 weeks and normal activities within 6-12 weeks. We provide guidance on proper body mechanics to protect your spine long-term.
- FAQS
Helping You Understand Spine Surgery
Spine surgery decisions are significant. These answers help you understand when surgery is needed and what to expect.
When is spine surgery necessary?
Surgery is considered when conservative treatments fail after 6-12 weeks, and symptoms significantly impact quality of life. Emergency surgery may be needed for progressive weakness, bowel/bladder dysfunction, or severe unrelenting pain. We evaluate each case individually and recommend surgery only when benefits outweigh risks.
What is the difference between discectomy and fusion?
Discectomy removes herniated disc material pressing on nerves, preserving motion at that level. Fusion joins vertebrae together, eliminating motion but providing stability. Discectomy is used for herniated discs. Fusion is used for instability, severe degeneration, or after disc removal in certain cases. We discuss which approach is appropriate for your condition.
How long is recovery after spine surgery?
Recovery varies by procedure. Microdiscectomy patients often return to desk work in 2-4 weeks. Fusion surgery may require 6-12 weeks before returning to normal activities. We provide specific timelines for your procedure and guide you through rehabilitation to optimise recovery.
Will I have restrictions after spine surgery?
Yes, temporary restrictions help healing. These may include lifting limits, bending restrictions, and activity modifications. We provide detailed instructions and gradually advance your activities as healing progresses. Long-term, we teach proper body mechanics to protect your spine.
Can spine surgery fail or need to be repeated?
While most spine surgeries are successful, no surgery has a 100% success rate. Some patients may have recurrent disc herniation or adjacent segment problems years later. We discuss realistic expectations and risks before surgery, and provide long-term follow-up to monitor your spine health.
