D.N.B. (Orthopaedics)
Member of the Association of Spine Surgeons of India
Advanced Spine Fellowship (The Spine Foundation, Mumbai)
Dr. Hrushikesh Mehata is not only a top-notch spine surgeon—he’s a committed caregiver, motivated by a deep sense of compassion for all those who lack good healthcare access. With 17+ years of experience and advance training from India, UK, and USA, his expertise is in minimally invasive spine surgery, correction of spinal deformities, and treatment of complicated degenerative spine disorders, trauma, and tumours.
His career has taken him from the prestigious Sassoon General Hospital in Pune to global institutions such as Cedars Sinai Hospital, USA, and Queen’s Medical Centre, UK. A gold medalist in the ASSI Spine Fellowship, Dr. Mehata has never failed to prove himself in his line of work. But aside from his surgical skills, his biggest contribution is his unshakeable dedication to working with underserved communities.
By conducting treatment at various Pune-based clinics, such as the Spine Care Clinic, Ruby Hall Clinic, and Fatimanagar Clinic, Dr. Mehata makes a significant difference in the lives of his patients, who otherwise would not be able to access expert-level care. His patient-centered approach means that every person is not just cured but also educated to avoid any spine problems in the future.
Education is one of the pillars of his mission. Through awareness programs or through his work in medical literature—co-authoring the “Textbook of Thoracic Spine,” he works to spread knowledge about spinal health. His commitment to empathetic and individualized care has changed lives innumerable times, restoring mobility, dignity, and hope.
For all those silently suffering, Dr. Mehata’s work is a light of hope, showing that medical care isn’t only about curing—it’s about changing lives.
Point Of View
"The Power of Outreach in Spinal Health"
My journey as a spine surgeon has been one of compassion and service. I have witnessed the struggles faced by individuals in rural and urban poor communities, many of whom suffer from untreated spinal conditions that affect their daily lives.
I firmly believe that we have the power to create change. By providing free spine surgeries and consultations, I aim to restore health and dignity to those who need it most. Each successful surgery is a step toward building a brighter future for my patients.
In addition to surgical interventions, I am dedicated to educating communities about spinal health. By raising awareness and promoting preventive measures, we can empower individuals to take charge of their well-being.
Together, we can pave the way for a healthier future. I encourage fellow healthcare professionals to join me in this mission, as we work to break down barriers and ensure that every individual has access to the care they deserve. Compassionate service is the key to transforming lives.

"A message for society from The Spine Foundation"
The Spine Foundation aims to provide the best spine care to the rural, tribal, and poor in urban areas of India. It was Founded by Dr. Shekhar Bhojraj, who believes that there is a critical gap of service in health care for this segment of patients who understand their spine health care needs but are usually ill-equipped with information or economic resources to access quality services. The Spine Foundation provides free medical consultations, treatments, and surgeries for different spinal conditions. Indeed, such spinal conditions can affect quality of life pretty seriously.
The foundation services include direct medical care, education, and preventive awareness of spinal health, education of communities to take preventive measures, and building sustainable healthcare in remote areas. The organization aims at empowering the individual and community to take control of their spine health instead of just treating it. With caring service and expert medical interventions, The Spine Foundation envisions a future where all individuals can receive quality spine care.
Together, we can create a healthier future by ensuring that every individual, regardless of their background or location, has access to quality spine care. Let’s work towards empowering the rural, tribal, and urban poor with the treatment and knowledge they need for a pain-free life.
