Dr Abhay Nene performed the scoliosis (Spine correction) surgery for my 11 year old daughter. If I have ever seen magic in real life, it lies in his hands. He is by far the best spine surgeon I could have asked for my child's treatment. More than a Dr., he is a genuinely kind hearted human being, who relates to the patient and their family. Thank you again Dr Abhay Nene for everything you have done for my child. Stay blessed.
