Appointments and wait times reviews.

The visit was very professional and well run. There was very little waiting. The staff was very friendly and considerate. Dr. Bhalla actually listened and we had a nice conversation. There was very little waiting and the appointment didn’t feel rushed. On top of that, I feel that I understand what is going on and what the next steps are. It was a very positive experience.

Dr. Bhalla is a warm and kind surgeon of great skill. Returning for an appointment after a few years, the new office is inviting, spotless and comfortable. And free parking! Moreover, the entire appointment was efficient (on time!) , well-organized and thorough. The staff were all friendly and professional. It was a great experience.

This was a very positive experience for a visit to a new orthopedic doctor for pain that was intense and new. The appointment went better than expected and I can definitely say I was treated well by everyone I saw.

Dr. Bhalla was kind, listened to my concerns, and explained the current issues and the next steps involving my treatment . The front desk staff was friendly, and I only waited 10 minutes past my appointment time. Great experience overall!”

Dr. Bhalla is great! I've had back issues and intermittent pain throughout my adult years. Whenever it got intolerable I resorted to acupuncture and/or chiropractic care and on a few occasions epidurals. Someone cutting on my back was not anything I was receptive to. When sciatic episodes became more frequent and longer lasting and I was forced to postpone scheduled knee replacement surgery I reluctantly decided to again consult an orthopedic surgeon. After initial consultation, x-rays and MRI I had follow up appointment with Dr. Bhalla to discuss options. He recommended surgery. Still reluctant to go that route I opted for another try with an epidural, but to to no avail. Back to Dr. Bhalla who told me the problems were going to continue to get worse so at age 73 I finally agreed to surgery. Lower lumber fusion surgery was performed at Long Beach Memorial Hospital by Dr. Bhalla and Dr. Rao (vascular surgeon). Anterior Lumber Interbody Fusion (ALIF) and laminectomy surgeries were performed on Monday and Thursday of the same week. The week in the hospital (overall very good care and treatment) and first 2 weeks at home I experienced moderate pain and discomfort but nothing intolerable. After 2 weeks of light rehab at home I started physical therapy program. After several weeks of PT my back felt really good. It has been nearly one year since the surgery and other than minimal discomfort during the initial recovery period I have experienced no back pain! From the initial consultation through the post-op visits Dr. Bhalla thoroughly explained all the options, the details of the surgical procedure, the recovery and rehabilitation process and patiently answered all my questions. Dr. Bhalla is a compassionate and highly skilled physician and surgeon! And, kudos to his very competent and kind office staff. While back surgery is a last resort, if there is no other viable way to address your pain and problems Dr. Bhalla is the surgeon for you.

I was able to get in with Dr Bhalla right away. His office staff is friendly and very competent. Dr Bhalla is a true gem. He has great bedside manner and took his time explaining everything and got me scheduled for surgery in less than a week!! It is hard to find good doctors so if you need a spine surgeon try Dr Bhalla. I will update this after surgery. ❤️

I had a hip surgery scheduled and it was canceled due to some severe pain in my neck Dr. Bhalla was one of the few spinal surgeons available. The receptionist and all of his staff were very courteous and professional in regards to my appointment. One could not accept any better service. Thank you

Great friendly Dr. and PA, very patient as I’m elderly. Looking forward to next appointment.

Dr. Bahla gives you a comprehensive explanation of whatever health issues you may have. His staff very friendly. As I was waiting to meet him I could noticed how his staff dealt with patients in the office. I want to thank Roselle for giving me information on the cost of potential surgery if I opt to choose it. Thank you!!

Being a patient at Commons Clinic has been a very positive experience. The office staff are helpful, warm and professional. My appointment was on time and the whole process was very efficient. I was very impressed with Dr. Bhalla - he is very knowledgeable and professional. He listened to me and asked good questions. He is very relatable and explained my medical situation clearly which empowers me as a patient. Dr. Bhalla was very kind and easy to talk to.

My first appointment with Dr. Bhalla - there is plenty of free parking in the lot surrounding the building where his office is located and also on 36th street; the waiting area and patient rooms are very clean and nicely decorated with firm comfortable seating; office staff greeted me promptly in a friendly manor; the X-ray tech was calm, gentle and compassionate; Dr. Bhalla greeted me in a warm welcoming manor, he was compassionate, did not rush me, asked many questions and let me ask questions. All doctors should replicate Dr. Bhalla and his team. The only one slight draw back was the amount of time I waited to see the Dr. however he did apologize first thing when he entered the patient room.

You want a surgeon that exudes confidence and that describes Dr. Bhalla perfectly. After looking at my MRI we were scheduling surgery the very next day. I went over a year with sciatica pain and now I am pain free. I can't tell you how happy I am with the overall experience with Dr. Bhalla and his entire staff! Cheers!
