Dr. Abhishek Kumar is an orthopedic spine surgeon specializing in minimally invasive spine surgery, motion preservation procedures, and complex spinal reconstruction. His work focuses on conditions involving spinal instability, nerve compression, deformity correction, and persistent pain following previous spine surgery.
Originally from Alberta, Canada, Dr. Kumar completed his medical education at the University of Calgary before continuing his orthopedic surgery residency training at McGill University in Montreal. He later completed advanced fellowship training at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, where his work centered on minimally invasive spine surgery and spinal deformity correction.
His background combines orthopedic biomechanics with modern spinal techniques focused on preserving movement whenever appropriate. This includes cervical and lumbar disc replacement procedures, minimally invasive decompression, and advanced stabilization techniques for patients with structural spine conditions.
Dr. Kumar works alongside the Comprehensive Pain Solutions team to ensure patients are evaluated from both surgical and non-surgical perspectives before treatment decisions are made. His role supports a coordinated approach to spine care, particularly for patients who have already undergone multiple forms of treatment without meaningful improvement.
At Comprehensive Pain Solutions, he collaborates with the broader team to ensure patients receive coordinated care based on how their condition presents. This approach allows for a clear transition between non-surgical treatment and surgical intervention when needed.
Outside of practice, Dr. Kumar reviews research for several orthopedic and spine journals and spends time bouldering, surfing, practicing yoga, and cooking with his wife.
