Dr. Ashish Tomar
Experience: 15+ years
Sarvodaya Hospital, Sector 8, Faridabad
Faridabad, India
Introduction
Dr. Ashish Tomar is Senior Consultant for Orthopaedics & Spine Surgery at Sarvodaya. People land in his clinic with everything from a slipped disc to full spinal deformity, and a good chunk of them are hoping to avoid a big open surgery if there’s any way around it.
About Dr. Ashish Tomar
Dr. Ashish Tomar did his MBBS and MS in Orthopaedics at UCMS, University of Delhi, then went to Japan twice for specialty training that’s shaped how he operates today. First a fellowship in cervical spine surgery and deformity correction under Dr. K. Abumi at Sapporo Orthopaedic Hospital, then a separate fellowship in minimally invasive spine surgery under Prof. Kokubun at Sendai Nishitaga Hospital. He rounded it out with additional training in Boston.
That Japanese training shows up directly in his surgical numbers: roughly 90% of his current caseload is done using minimally invasive techniques. He’s also credited with performing North India’s first OLIF L5-S1 procedure and Faridabad’s first OLIF, ALIF, and scoliosis surgeries, which is the kind of “firsts” that only happen when a surgeon’s technical training runs well ahead of what’s locally standard.

Patient Experience & Approach
A lot of spine patients walk in bracing for the idea of a long, painful open surgery, and Dr. Ashish Tomar’s whole practice is built around proving that’s usually not necessary anymore. He leans hard on minimally invasive techniques not as a selling point but because it’s genuinely what most of his cases call for: smaller incisions, less blood loss, quicker time back on your feet. For complex deformity or revision cases where a minimally invasive approach isn’t realistic, he’s upfront about that too, rather than forcing a technique that doesn’t fit the problem.
