Dr Toor has also undertaken advanced subspecialty training in Spine Interventional Pain Medicine, positioning him at the forefront of minimally invasive spinal and musculoskeletal pain procedures.  His expertise bridges precision diagnostics with image-guided interventions, offering patients cutting-edge, evidence-based care and a multidisciplinary approach.
