I am incredibly grateful for the care I received at The Center for Spine Health, especially from Dr. Maneesh Tiwari. I came in with severe pain due to a T6 compression fracture, and from the first visit, Dr. Tiwari showed compassion, professionalism, and deep expertise. He carefully evaluated my condition, explained the diagnosis in detail, and developed a treatment plan that helped me manage the pain effectively. Thanks to his guidance and the medications he prescribed, I'm now in recovery and no longer experiencing the terrible pain that brought me in. Dr. Tiwari's calm and attentive approach made me feel supported every step of the way. I truly appreciate the time he took to listen and to adjust the treatment as needed.
