Doctor discovery · Spine Surgery
Mumbai has spine-surgery listings in the wider GAF directory, but this article does not infer that every listed institution performs spinal fusion. Only dynamically resolved procedure relationships should produce clinician or hospital cards, and a card is not a ranking, volume statement or capability guarantee.
Quick answer
Spine surgery treats selected compression, instability, deformity, trauma and tumour conditions after symptoms, neurological findings and imaging are correlated. The plan must distinguish decompression from fusion, define levels and approach, and compare surgery with non-operative care where appropriate.

Mumbai has spine-surgery listings in the wider GAF directory, but this article does not infer that every listed institution performs spinal fusion. Only dynamically resolved procedure relationships should produce clinician or hospital cards, and a card is not a ranking, volume statement or capability guarantee. 8 listed spine surgery specialists currently appear for Mumbai, across 3 hospitals in the catalog.
A doctor appears only when the GAF catalog records the matching Spine Surgery specialty, location and, where selected, exact procedure relationship. Results are not ranked by outcomes or medical superiority.
This directory uses professional catalog information and exact specialty and procedure relationships. It does not constitute a medical ranking, guarantee availability or replace a case review by a qualified spine surgeon.
Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport: Mumbai and Navi Mumbai are divided by the harbour. Peak traffic and monsoon flooding turn a short map distance into a long sit — a poor match after lumbar fusion, ACDF or a brace protocol. Wet floors, stair-only buildings and long skywalks are a poor match for a lumbar or cervical restriction. Ask whether the first outpatient physiotherapy sessions sit on the same side as the ward.

Clinical decisions
These are planning questions, not a scoring system. Technique, campus and follow-up still have to be confirmed in writing.
Treatments
Each spine procedure keeps its canonical cost guide. Doctor lists only include exact procedure mappings.
Spinal Fusion
Spinal fusion joins selected vertebrae so that a painful or unstable motion segment can heal as one bone, usually with screws, rods and a bone graft or cage. The surgeon prepares the disc space or posterior elements, places instrumentation and graft, and decompresses nerves if that work is part of the same sitting.

8 mapped specialists
Discectomy
Discectomy removes the herniated disc fragment that is compressing a nerve root so that leg or arm pain from that root may ease, without fusing the segment. Through a posterior lumbar window the surgeon retracts the root, removes the offending fragment and inspects the canal. Fusion is not part of this product unless written.
Spine surgeons for DiscectomyDiscectomy treatment in India
8 mapped specialists
Microdiscectomy
Microdiscectomy uses a microscope or high magnification through a smaller window to remove the lumbar fragment that is pinching a nerve root. A small posterior incision and a microscope allow the surgeon to retract the root and remove the fragment while preserving as much stable disc as possible.

6 mapped specialists
Laminectomy
Laminectomy removes part or all of the lamina to widen the spinal canal when stenosis is squeezing the nerves, without automatically fusing the segment. Through a posterior exposure the surgeon removes lamina and flavum enough to free the thecal sac and roots, taking care of the pars if fusion is not planned.

Spinal Deformity Correction
Spinal deformity correction addresses kyphosis, sagittal imbalance or a complex curve that is not only a typical scoliotic bend, often with osteotomies, long instrumentation and fusion. The surgeon places anchors, performs the planned osteotomy, corrects alignment under neuromonitoring, and grafts a long fusion.

Spinal Tumor Surgery
Spinal tumor surgery decompresses or removes a tumour affecting the vertebra, canal or cord — metastatic or selected primary — when oncology and stability already sit on the same plan. The corridor follows the tumour. Decompression, biopsy, cement, screws or a cage reconstruction are combined only as the board planned.

Revision Spine Surgery
Revision spine surgery re-operates on a previously treated segment to address failed fusion, loose or broken implants, recurrent compression, infection or adjacent-segment problems. Scarred corridors are reopened, implants are removed or extended, and the new construct matches the failure mode. Scope ranges from a single screw to a long deformity revision.

Guides
The quick answer on this page is summarised from GAF Healthcare’s Spine Surgery treatment guide. That guide remains the canonical article for clinical context, treatment options and planning.
A spine surgeon evaluates the relevant diagnosis, explains suitable spine procedures, coordinates treatment-specific assessment and follow-up, and discusses alternatives and material risks. The specialty guide provides clinical context without ranking individual doctors.
8 catalog records currently match this Mumbai listing. Filter by city, hospital or documented procedure. “Best” is the discovery heading for that search intent, not a clinical ranking.
Listed spine surgeons currently appear in Delhi NCR (38), Mumbai (8), Bengaluru (3), Chennai (6), Hyderabad (8). Counts are directory facts, not quality scores.
The catalog currently maps spine surgeons to Spinal Fusion, ACDF (Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion), Discectomy, Microdiscectomy, Laminectomy, Disc Replacement, Spinal Deformity Correction, Vertebroplasty. Procedure pages are published only when enough exact doctor relationships exist.
Hospitals with current listings include Gleneagles Hospital, Mumbai, Apollo Hospitals, Navi Mumbai, Medicover Hospital, Navi Mumbai. A hospital profile remains the canonical campus page.
Use the compare tray to place two to four listed specialists side by side on experience, qualifications, hospital, city and mapped procedures. Comparison uses catalog fields only.
Use the stored India planning range as the stored India planning range. No verified Mumbai-only price is stored; the final amount follows record review and an itemized hospital letter.
Only profiles dynamically matched to this exact procedure should be shown. If no card appears, that is a current catalog gap rather than a hidden list. Verify role, current appointment and operating campus; placement is not a ranking.
There is no universal best hospital. Compare the named team, exact campus, quote boundaries, implant or level assumptions and continuity of physiotherapy after discharge. This page names no provider.

Initially I was very hesitant what to do, where to go for the treatment of my father who was suffering with prostate cancer. Thanks to google, I came into touch with Gaf Healthcare. They have arranged everything, starting from treatment plan, video consultation, airport pickup, to surgery and following up. My father was operated in Sahyadri Pune, robotic prostatectomy was done. Now he is fine.
★★★★★
The hospitality was at its point. I appreciate the great service I got from the team. Being away from Home and get the feeling like you are at home is what Gaf is doing. Thank you once more, this have lifetime memories in my life.
