ACL Reconstruction & Meniscal Repair Success After consulting with several orthopedic specialists about my ACL and meniscus injuries, I ultimately chose Dr. Ramkumar—and I am so glad I did!! During my first appointment, his approach stood out: as clear, detailed, compassionate, and above reproach. He took the time to explain every option available to me, answering anll my questions, and immediately gave me confidence in his care. His entire support team deserves recognition. His Nurse Practitioner was attentive and reassuring throughout the process. The Surgery Coordinator made the pre-op scheduling seamless, and the front desk team was consistently welcoming and efficient. A special shout-out to the Disability Forms Specialist as well—quick, knowledgeable, and kind, which made dealing with the paperwork stress-free. The pre-op process was impressively thorough. Dr. Ramkumar’s comprehensive website laid out everything I needed to know—from the days leading up to surgery, to what to expect the day of, to post-op recovery protocols. That kind of accessibility and detail truly made a difference in helping me feel prepared and empowered. A few days after surgery, I had a minor concern and messaged his office—Dr. Ramkumar responded almost immediately, which speaks volumes about his dedication and attentiveness to patient care. Thanks to his clearly communicated physical therapy protocol, I am pleasantly surprised to be back to most of my usual activities just 4 short weeks after surgery. I never expected such progress so soon, and it’s a direct result of the quality of care I received. To Dr. Ramkumar and your incredible staff: thank you for guiding me through this journey with expertise, efficiency, and genuine care. I’m beyond grateful.

I had been suffering from severe arthritis in both knees for a number of years, always afraid of knee replacement surgery after seeing how hard it was on a family member. Now, I’m 6 weeks out from left knee replacement surgery, having had the *best possible experience* under Dr. Prem Ramkumar’s excellent care. He and his helpful staff have been with me every step of the way. His friendly demeanor put me at ease, and his knowledge and experience engendered my trust. But the best part is how well I have felt postoperatively. My pain was very well managed, and my range of motion is progressing rapidly with the help of both his in-house physical therapist as well as a handy app that has home exercises which are advanced in stages. The app also provides a lot of useful recovery information and a way to easily communicate with the office. If you need any type of knee surgery, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Ramkumar to you. I will be returning later in the year to have him replace my right knee. A+ positive experience.

I Love Dr Bhalla. He listens and then talks. He is very confident but not in a know it all way either. He is very knowledgeable and has the best bed side manner of any Doctor and not full of himself!

Dr.Bhalla made me feel comfortable from the get go. He heard and answered all of my questions. Most of all my surgery was a success and I've been pain free since 2018.

Beautiful new office with friendly staff. Dr. Bae was super helpful in suggesting a solution to my problem. He explained what he wants to do and described the procedure clearly.

Hyun Bae, MD

As eas previously the case at Commons, I was treated courteously at the desk and seen promptly. The support staff were kind, careful and efficient. I was impressed at the painless, invisible blood draw. Everything was explained as we went and my options were outlined. So : really really good and I hope I never have to go back!

Allyson Estess, MD

Dr , kamrava is fantastic. Great bedside manner. Very easy to talk to and takes his time with clear explanations presenting all options. The epidural I received was easy and pain-free and so far seems to be successful. Highly recommend this doctor.

What another great experience with Dr Port! He asks the right questions and listens to get to the right solutions. He has kept me moving and healthy since 2017 and that is a gift.

Michael Port, MD

Dr. Bhalla is an excellent spinal surgeon and he has an excellent staff. The staff got me in earlier than my original appointment because I was in a great deal of pain. The surgery coordinator did an excellent job of facilitating the process leading up to the procedure. Dr. Bhalla has been excellent from start to finish, taking the time to carefully listen and explain my situation to me and answer questions. There was a great deal of follow-up post surgery. The entire atmosphere of the office and Dr Bhalla 's. very professional demeanor created an environment in which I had complete trust and confidence in him as a person, in his professional abilities, and in his office staff. I am extremely grateful that I had such an excellent person and doctor for my surgery and care.

Dr. Millstein and his team were wonderful during my son’s recent laterjet shoulder surgery. Big should out to his anesthesiologist who was also amazing and so kind. This was my son’s second shoulder surgery in 2 years and after a lot of research and recommendations we went with Dr. Millstein and we are so glad we did! He was kind, professional and took his time explaining the procedure in detail and all the recovery steps. We are 3 weeks out and looking forward to our next post op meeting to assess his healing and progress. Great experience so far! Thank you Dr. M.

smart.....detailed......explains everything.....shows you right on the MRI/CAT pictures what the problems are.

Brandon A. Ortega, MD

After years of dealing with chronic numbness and tingling in my arms, I finally found relief thanks to Dr. Ortega and his incredible team. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed, heard, and taken seriously. I had tried everything—physical therapy, cortisone shots, rest—but the symptoms persisted. Dr. Ortega took the time to review my MRI in detail, explain my condition thoroughly, and walk me through all my options. Just weeks later, he successfully performed surgery to replace three damaged discs in my cervical spine (C4–C7). I’m now just two weeks post-op and already feeling a huge difference. While there’s still some soreness from the recovery process, the intense pain caused by spinal cord compression and disc herniation is gone. This review may be a little early, but I couldn’t wait to share my gratitude. Once I’m fully healed, I look forward to writing an update—but for now, I’m just excited to be getting back to the active lifestyle I’ve missed for so long. Thank you, Dr. Ortega, for helping me take my life back.

Dr. Port is professional a knowledgeable, while also staying personable. He answered all my questions prior to my surgery, in easily understandable language, and visited me after surgery.

Michael Port, MD

We absolutely love Dr. Ortega. He healed my mom from the pain she endured for many years. From the first day we met him, bilingual in the Spanish language, he was extremely patient and explained our mother’s condition and future surgery in detail. Dr. Ortega truly cares for his patients and their overall well being. Dr. Ortega continues to make a difference one patient at a time. I am in awwe at his level of knowledge and experience. He is also very personable and shakes our hand every time we visit. It’s the little things that sometimes leave a lasting impression. We love Dr. Ortega and his compassionate approach Thank you Dr Ortega for saving my mom’s life. I will always be grateful for your speciality. I will never forget the day I sat at LB Memorial for what seemed like an eternity only to see you after the procedure so cool, calm, and collective to let me know everything went great. There is no doubt Dr. Ortega is leading the future in spinal procedure advancements. He is doing extraordinary work with his magical hands.
