More about Indiana Spine Group

Nurses who have worked here talk about ratios that still allow real patient care and about a strong learning curve on the job. The physician side of the house shows up in Castle Connolly and Indianapolis Monthly Top Doctor lists, and Indiana Spine Hospital was recognized as a 2025 Wellbeing First Champion. The group has also been opening newer offices, including Vincennes and Greensburg. Pay is the clear soft spot: a current RN BSN says the scale lags similar facilities nearby, and Glassdoor’s comp category sits lower than the overall score. If spine work and manageable ratios matter more to you than topping the local pay chart, this is worth a closer look.
