It depends on what you need the back surgery for. I had it for a pinched nerve that was cutting all feeling to my leg. It worked for me. However, I have other problems with my back that caused the pinched nerve and surgery for that is risky. I am waiting on that one till I have no choice any more and in the interm trying alternative therapies. Do some research if you have the time and find the best surgeon you can to do the procedure. Make sure you are comfortable with having the surgery and always ask if there is an alternative to surgery. There are lots of ways to fix problems with your back. If you are uncomfortable with your diaganosis from your doctor, get a second opinion.

Back Surgery is very cheap in India. There is one company that is very famous in India that arranges spine surgery for foreigners in India. They are called the Fly2india4health Consultants. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories. I have also read that they arrange financing for international patients, as all surgery is not covered by insurance or by the stinking NHS.
They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. The cost savings are incredible. As a doctor I personally believe that your spine surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of Healthcare available here is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.
My cousin got her spine surgery done there and she is more than very happy with the results. She is all praise for Fly2india4health Consultants. She paid just 20% of the cost what she was quoted in USA and it was like a wonderful vacation for her. Hope this helps
