Is this what you've been
living with every day?
Most spine pain is misdiagnosed or masked with painkillers for years. Our specialists find the root cause — and fix it permanently.
SciaticaThat electric shooting pain from your lower back all the way down your leg — it's your sciatic nerve compressed by a damaged disc or bone spur. Treatable. Curable.
- Sharp pain from lower back to foot
- Numbness or tingling in leg / toes
- Pain worsens when sitting or standing
- Difficulty walking or climbing stairs
Slipped DiscWhen your disc slips and presses on a nerve, even putting on shoes is a battle. Minimally invasive surgery means most patients walk out in just 2–3 days.
- Intense lower back or neck pain
- Pain radiating to arm or leg
- Weakness in hands or feet
- Pain on bending, lifting, coughing
Spondylosis / Neck PainCervical spondylosis makes every screen hour, every car ride, every morning unbearable. You don't have to keep living on painkillers — there are lasting solutions.
- Neck stiffness & chronic headaches
- Tingling in hands & fingers
- Giddiness, balance problems
- Pain that worsens with screen use
Not a factory.
A clinic that cares.
Big hospital. Big bills. One minute with a doctor you'll never see again. That ends here.
You Always Speak to Your Surgeon
No junior residents. The same spine surgeon who consults you, operates on you, and follows up with you. You have their number.
Back to Life in Days, Not Months
Keyhole endoscopic techniques mean smaller incisions, far less blood loss, and most patients resume daily routine within 7–10 days.
Honest, Transparent Pricing
Full cost before surgery. No surprise bills. No additional charges on discharge. Spine surgery shouldn't drain your savings.
Super-Specialist Qualifications
Every surgeon is fellowship-trained in advanced spinal techniques — bringing global-standard care to your neighbourhood.
Surgery is Always the Last Resort
We explore physiotherapy, injections, and non-surgical options first. Over 80% improve without surgery.
Second Opinions Welcome
Been told you "definitely need surgery"? Bring your MRI. We give you an honest, independent assessment — no pressure.
They got their lives back.
You can too.
A housewife from Andheri. A businessman from Bandra. A school teacher from Vile Parle. Real people who walked back into their lives.
After 2 years of pain, 4 doctors, and ₹80,000 spent on physio — Dr. Bhide diagnosed my problem in one sitting. Surgery in a week. I'm back at the gym now.
Dr. Raj sat with me for 45 minutes, explained my MRI, showed me every option. I felt I was talking to a friend who happened to be a brilliant surgeon. That feeling is rare.
Cost was 40% less than a corporate hospital — same procedure, same implants. Dr. Marathe explained every rupee beforehand. Total transparency. I tell everyone about Synapse.
Mujhe puri zindagi back pain thi. Socha tha ab theek nahi hoga. 3 din mein hospital se ghar gayi. Abhi seedha chalti hoon. Bahut shukriya Synapse Spine team ko.
