Proven Orthopaedic Care. Focused on Recovery,
Non-Surgically.

Not in most cases. QI Spine follows a non-invasive-first approach, with surgery considered only when conservative treatment is not enough. Treatment may begin with Cell Repair Therapy to reduce pain and inflammation, followed by Medical Movement Therapy and device-based rehabilitation to restore strength and mobility. In fact, 9 in 10 patients who arrive at QI Spine after being told they need surgery leave without one. Across 1,20,000+ patients treated over 18 years, QI Spine has maintained a 93% recovery rate with its non-surgical-first approach.

Doctor QI is QI Spine’s proprietary, in-house clinical decision support system. It does not replace the doctor. Instead, it validates the doctor’s diagnosis by analysing clinical findings and patient data, helping identify details that may otherwise be missed. Doctor QI has been trained using data from more than 1.2 lakh patients across 130+ spine and joint conditions. It helps doctors confirm the underlying cause of a condition with greater precision and refine treatment plans as a patient’s recovery progresses.

Your day-to-day care may be led by a spine specialist with BPT/MPT qualifications who has received specialised training in spine and joint diagnosis and treatment under the guidance of orthopaedic experts. Your care does not rely on generic exercise programmes. Every case is reviewed with Doctor QI for diagnostic validation, while orthopaedic doctor steps in whenever specialised attention is required. This means your treatment combines spine specialist care with orthopaedic oversight and data-backed diagnostic support.

QI Assurance is QI Spine’s written treatment guarantee. If you follow the complete treatment programme but do not meet your recovery goals, QI Spine offers an additional three weeks of treatment at no extra cost until those goals are met. We are the only provider in India offering a written guarantee of this kind. As part of this approach, the care team tracks pain scores, disability levels and functional goals throughout treatment. If your recovery is falling behind, the team can step in rather than waiting for you to raise the concern.

Treatment costs depend on your condition and its severity, so there is no single fixed price. A recent or less complex condition may cost less to treat than a long-standing or complex one. As a general guide, most QI Spine treatment programmes range from ₹15,000 to ₹35,000. This covers the complete personalised treatment plan rather than charging you separately for each visit. Your diagnosis is assessed first, after which the team provides a clear, upfront estimate so you know what is included before treatment begins.

You can book an appointment through the QI Spine website or by contacting your nearest clinic. A member of the team can help you choose a convenient date and specialist. If you miss a scheduled appointment, simply contact your QI Spine clinic or care coordinator to reschedule. A missed visit does not affect your treatment plan, and the team can help you get back on track. If travelling to the clinic is not immediately possible, a tele-consultation may also be available for appropriate follow-up.

Spine and joint conditions often require expertise that sits between traditional orthopaedic diagnosis and physiotherapy-led rehabilitation. An orthopaedic doctor is highly trained in surgical diagnosis, while spine specialists (physiotherapists) specialise in movement and rehabilitation. Non-surgical medical diagnosis of spine conditions requires a different combination of expertise. When these areas are considered separately, the underlying cause can sometimes be missed, or surgery may be suggested sooner than necessary. QI Spine brings these perspectives together through orthopaedic-trained spine specialists, specialist doctors and Dr. QI’s diagnostic validation.

QI Spine brings together four elements that are rarely found in one place: an integrated team of orthopaedic doctor, non-surgical care experts and spine specialists; AI-assisted diagnostic support through Dr. QI and Digital Spine Analysis; a non-surgical-first approach, with 9 in 10 surgery-referred patients recovering without surgery; and QI Assurance, which is a written guarantee of continued care until recovery goals are met. This approach is backed by 1,20,000+ patients treated, 18+ years of experience and a 93% recovery rate. Together, these elements are designed to address the gaps created by fragmented, single-specialist spine care.

The initial diagnosis is best conducted in person because it involves a physical examination, Digital Spine Analysis and device-based assessments that cannot be fully replicated remotely. Once your treatment programme is underway, QI Spine can offer greater flexibility. If regular travel to the clinic is difficult, your in-clinic visits may be scheduled less frequently, with tele-consultations used for progress check-ins when appropriate. Your care team can work with you to balance consistent treatment with your practical needs.
