My mom had surgery with Indiana Spine Group in 2025 and had a very successful outcome. The doctors and staff were all professional, kind, and made the whole experience much easier for our family. Because of her great care and success, I’ve also started seeing this group for back pain. I would definitely recommend Indiana Spine Group to anyone dealing with back issues or considering surgery.
