PAIN CONDITIONS TREATED
Chronic pain is a real condition without a simple solution. We believe treatment requires a partnership between the patient and the clinician. Below are the common pain conditions we treat.
Our Patient’S Opinion
Ruben Martin2025-07-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I came across Dr. Manish Raj by chance when researching about herniated lumbar disc treatments. I’m currently in Kuwait, where I suffered a work-related injury and had been experiencing severe pain for over a year. Dr. Manish consulted with me over the phone and thoroughly reviewed my case. He was knowledgeable, very responsive patiently addressing my concerns and so, instilled complete confidence in me, leading me to decide to travel to Dubai for the surgery..and it was the best decision I made! Just a few days after the procedure, I am walking without any pain. I can't believe my recovery time was only 15 days! I can't express enough gratitude for his professionalism and the care he provided. Thank you, Dr. Manish and your team, for this miracle. Your professionalism truly lives up to your reputation. YT Prem12025-07-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I want to express my deepest gratitude to this doctor. He went above and beyond not only helping me during regular hours, but also taking time out of his personal time, which is truly not something to take for granted. What really stood out was that he even reached out to me from Miami, just to let me know exactly which medication and remedies I should get to feel better. And I have to say it worked. Thanks to his care and guidance, I genuinely feel much better now. It’s rare to come across a doctor who combines expertise with such kindness and dedication. I highly, highly recommend him. Thank you so much for everything! Shant Daldalian2025-06-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. One of the best decisions I made when I visited Dr. Manish to assess my condition of a severe leg pain which was preventing me from walking or seating. It is rear to find a Dr. who spend a lot of time explaining patients their condition and possible treatments. In my case I decided to go ahead with an endoscopic surgery which was successful and the same day of surgery I was able to walk without any pain. Md Saddam Hossain2025-06-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My experience has been awesome after getting treatement for my L4-5 disc by endoscopic spine surgery.

Most experienced endoscopic spine surgeon in dubai and you'll not regret decision of getting operated by him. My mother is happy after the treatment . Ganesh Rrawat2025-06-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best spine doctor in dubai for spine pain and endoscopic spine surgery. I'm pain free after L4-5 disc surgery vidya ajesh2025-06-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I underwent a lumbar discectomy in March 2025 under Dr Manish Raj for a herniated disc. From my first consultation, he was detailed and reassuring, explaining all treatment options. He didn’t rush to surgery and only recommended it after other therapies failed. The procedure went smoothly at Emirates Specialty Hospital. I was walking that same day with minimal pain. Recovery was swift, and I’m now back at the gym pain-free. The follow-up care was excellent, and I always felt supported. Highly recommend him for anyone facing spinal surgery."
