I’ve known Dr. Port as a lay colleague and friend for many years, so there is some bias in my feedback. I will say that his approach to explaining esoteric concepts in the simplest of ways, thoughtfulness in listening to and understanding my symptoms, and attention to detail (pre/ post procedure)… are second to few. I experienced an acute sciatic episode, and it scared me to disbelief. Dr. Port found time in his busy schedule to plan my MRI and epidural intervention. I’m finally in a place of comfort and can resume my life with physical therapy and better posture, with the goal of avoiding surgery. Can't thank him enough!

Dr Bhalla has been great to work with. The surgery he performed on my back was life changing. He’s thorough, professional, patient, attentive and actually listens to what the patient has to say about their own body. I wish he could be my primary care physician!

I am very pleased with Dr Bhalla who performed my spinal fusion this past March. He is a great surgeon and listener. You never feel hurried by him and he answers every question. I would recommend him.

He spent a good amount of time answering my questions and thinking out loud what the options were. It significantly reduced my anxiety. He's very present and purposeful. 5 starts all around.

I have been suffering from excruciating pain in my shoulder for the past 4 months,I went to see Dr Christopher combs and had hydrocortisone injection today. This is the best decision I made.Dr Combs listens and explains in layman’s words.He gives you the options and let’s you decide.
Christopher Combs, MD
Very professional doctor with an excellent bedside manner. Did not advise surgery which is wonderful to hear. Needed a full explanation of my condition which DrBae explained in a logical manner. Very pleased with my visit

Dr. Kamrava is down to earth and personable. I was desperate to be seen by a pain managment and Dr. Kamrava was able to have a phone call appt pretty fast. Dr. Kamrava put me at ease on the call and we scheduled a procedure for today, Oct. 8th, 2024, so I promise to have an update in the future. But so far, he deserve the 5 starts. The staff is great and Nora, his personal assistant, is amazing. She went out of her way to communicate with me and my insurance, to insure that the procedure is going to be done as originally scheduled. Hi highly recommend Dr. Kamrava's office.

Best Orthopaedic Surgeon EVER!!!! I wouldn't have had my most recent lower spine surgery if he wasn't available. He's the Best, and his staff is also. He has the best bedside manners, he pays attention to what your needs and concerns are, he thinks of you only when he's dealing with you. After my surgery and I went home the next day, he called me to check to see how things were going. At the time they were going well. The next day there was an issue. I had also received a text message from his office so I called in and they got him on the phone. He explained what was going on and called a prescription in for my issue. He always keeps the patient the priority and I personally appreciate that. Also, the day of my surgery, as he was heading to his prep area he looked at my son and told him "I'm going to take good care of your mom", that sealed the deal for me. He has always been an exceptional doctor for me. And his office personnel are awesome and special. You cannot write a review without mentioning them. They set the tone for the visit and the office and then Dr Bhalla completes the visit. % exceptional in my opinion. And I can't close this out without mentioning Dr Bhalla wonderful smile . Thank you Dr Bhalla for all you have helped me with, in regards to, my cervical and lower spine. You are the BEST.

The first time I met Dr. Ramkumar, I felt comfortable and at ease. I came to him with "knee pain" but after being assessed and taking a few x-rays, he quickly informed me that the issue was not my knee but was actually my hip. I had seen multiple doctors in the past who had diagnosed me with arthritis in the knee and claimed that was causing pain that I felt. Dr. Ramkumar explained what the issue was, how the issue probably happened and the solution. I came to him with previous medical trauma and skepticism of the health care system. My experience with him has been nothing short of amazing. The hip impingement surgery went well and recovery was better than I expected. I was on a stationary bike the day after surgery and started PT within days. Pain level was minimal with the exception of occasional stiffness at the surgery site. I've been able to walk and recovery quicker than I imagined possible. I haven't experience any of the pain (lower back, hip and knee) that I had prior to the surgery since the morning after surgery. If you are someone who is unsure or confused about hip and/or knee issues, I'd urge you to see Dr. Ramkumar. He got it right with me the first time and I have seen nothing but improvements to my day to day and overall quality of life. If I have to undergo the surgery on my other hip, I would not hesitate to contact Dr. Ramkumar again.

Staff was friendly and courteous. I didn’t have to wait long to go inside to see the doctor. He was nice and listen to my issues.

Five stars is the maximum Yelp allows, but I would rate this amazing surgeon ten stars and more to anyone with spine challenges! Dr Sanjay Khurana is a wonderful human being, a brilliant physician and an excellent surgeon! About a year ago, without any warning, I had difficulty walking, I also had burning sensations in my arms and hands. I saw neurologists and sought opinions from four surgeons. Some recommended two and three disk cervical fusion, which I wanted to avoid. Dr. Khurana took the time to thoroughly explain my MRI and let me know that my spinal compression had to be addressed. As the solution, he recommended two artificial disk replacements. When I had more questions, he called me at 8pm one evening and patiently answered all my questions before surgery. How many surgeons do that? Now, four months later, I'm very happy to report that my surgery was flawless! I have two artificial disks and everything related to my surgery has healed perfectly. Additionally, Dr. Khurana's Medical Assistant Brianna and every member of his staff are very polite, efficient and a pleasure to work with. The Commons Clinic where I had the surgery, my Anesthesiologist and the nurses were also amazing. Thank you Dr. Khurana for removing my cervical spinal compression and all the risks that come from that. God Bless You!

Dr. Khurana is terrific. Whenever ever I have had to see him he takes his time to explain and I have never felt rushed. He also has operated on both myself and my wife, both with great results.
Sanjay Khurana, MD
Answer all my questions and give me advice on what and how to make it better.
Sanjay Khurana, MD

Dr. Bhalla is an amazing surgeon, very skillful and knowledge, he listen and answer any questions. Staff are very nice and helpful.
Amandeep Bhalla, MD
I visited Dr. Millstein for a torn rotator cuff and then two months later for a fractured kneecap. Dr. Millstein is incredibly knowledgeable and is conservative in his treatment. I've heard that surgeons are quick to want to perform surgery, but Dr. Millstein listened carefully, looked at test results and determined that surgery was not necessary for either of my injuries. His skillset is top-notch and he answers all questions without rushing you. His staff is also as phenomenal as he - they are very efficient, kind and follow through with all calls, forms, etc. If I could give Dr. Millstein 10 stars, I would. He is deserving.

Dr. Ramkumar performed a total left knee reconstruction on my mom one month ago. He was very professional by explaining it was a high risk complicated surgery due to her diabetes. Thankfully everything went well and my mom is healing good day by day. We are very pleased of Dr. Ramkumar’s amazing, skilled and dedicated work! Definitely recommend!
Prem N. Ramkumar, MD, MBA
Dr. Khurana is excellent and attentive. He spent a lot of time with me, looked at my MRIs going back years, and gave me a very detailed explanation of my condition and proposed treatments. I felt he could be trusted. Highly recommend.
Sanjay Khurana, MD
I initially sought a second opinion from Dr. Eric Millstein, but after meeting with him, I decided to continue my care with him. Dr. Millstein's attentiveness and genuine listening made a significant impact on me. His excellent bed manners and the courtesy of his staff further enhanced my experience. I am extremely satisfied with the care I am receiving and highly recommend Dr. Milstein for his professionalism and compassionate approach.
Eric S. Millstein, MD
I'm a 61 year old woman who has no desire to slow down. Dr. Millstein has been helping me stay on the courts for a few years now. Always with patience, and a kind demeanor. Met with him yesterday to discuss upcoming knee replacement. He explained everything thoroughly and eased my fears. I have 100% confidence that he'll do a great job and will provide excellent follow-up care.
