Dr. Vishnu Vikraman Nair — Spine Surgeon in Kharghar

Dr. Vishnu Vikraman Nair focuses on spine care, including minimally invasive and endoscopic spine surgery, at NAIR Spine & Knee Clinic, Kharghar and partner hospitals across Navi Mumbai.

Focus Areas

Dr. Vishnu Vikraman Nair's practice is centred on the spine. This includes evaluation and treatment of back pain and leg pain, neck pain and arm pain, spondylosis, slip disc and sciatica, spondylolisthesis and spinal stenosis, and spinal deformity such as scoliosis and kyphosis. Where surgery is appropriate, he discusses minimally invasive spine surgery, micro-endoscopic spine surgery, keyhole spine surgery and, for select patients, disc replacement surgery. He also sees patients for broader bone and joint disorders and general orthopaedic consultations.

A Note on Robotic Knee Replacement

If you found this page while searching for robotic knee replacement, that procedure is led by Dr. Juilee Mhatre Nair at NAIR Spine & Knee Clinic, not by Dr. Vishnu Vikraman Nair. Her profile explains her focus on orthopaedics, trauma and robotic knee/joint replacement, and how to book a consultation with her.

Conditions Treated

Patients typically consult Dr. Vishnu Vikraman Nair for persistent back or neck pain, pain that radiates into an arm or leg, numbness or tingling linked to the spine, age-related spine wear (spondylosis), a diagnosed or suspected slip disc, or a spinal curvature concern. Many of these conditions overlap, and part of the first consultation is narrowing down which structure in the spine is causing your symptoms.

When to seek urgent care: sudden loss of bladder or bowel control, rapidly worsening leg weakness, or numbness in the inner thighs/groin alongside back pain can indicate a rare but serious condition and need prompt medical attention rather than a routine appointment.

Approach to Care

Dr. Vishnu Vikraman Nair's approach generally starts with a clinical examination and a review of your history and any existing scans, followed by imaging if needed. Many patients are first managed with physiotherapy, activity modification and medication. Surgery — including minimally invasive or endoscopic techniques — is discussed when conservative treatment has not given adequate relief, or when there are specific clinical indications such as significant nerve compression. He explains the reasoning behind each recommendation so you understand why a particular path is being suggested for your case.

What to Expect at a First Consultation

Your first visit typically involves a discussion of your symptoms and medical history, a physical examination, and a review of any scans or reports you bring. Dr. Vishnu Vikraman Nair will explain what he thinks is causing your symptoms, what tests (if any) are needed next, and the range of treatment options — starting with the least invasive option that is medically reasonable for your case. Bringing prior MRI, X-ray or CT reports helps make the visit more productive.
