About Our Practice


Who we are and what we do



Located in Manhattan on the Upper East Side, the New York Center for Spinal Disorders was founded by Dr. Nathaniel Tindel. Believing in the importance of connecting with his patients one-on-one, Dr. Tindel treatsboth adults and teens for many different types of spine conditions including:

  • Herniated Discs
  • Scoliosis
  • Spinal Stenosis
  • Sciatica
  • Back and Neck Pain
  • Degenerative Disc Diseases
  • Spondylolisthesis
  • Revision Spinal Surgery

Supporting our patients every step of the way


Recognizing that the decision to have back surgery is one of the most difficult anyone can face, Dr. Tindel brings a comprehensive and compassionate approach to working with his patients. His philosophy is to always try and explore non-surgical options first and foremost.



In the event that surgery is considered, Dr. Tindel goes to great lengths to educate his patients about their condition and treatment options, so that they can make decisions together, as a team.
