Patient Experience & Approach
Patients with disc problems say Dr. Verma doesn’t jump to surgery when physiotherapy still has a fair chance. Checks imaging properly and tries conservative management first. Those who needed minimally invasive surgery mentioned tiny wounds, and they were moving around within a day or two. People with spinal tumors say his Singapore tumor surgery training showed how confidently he operated near the cord without causing new damage.
