Compassion and bedside manner reviews

Dr Khurana is a brilliant surgeon always on top of the latest techniques and minimally invasive procedures….and he is an incredibly caring and kind human, as well ! After 2 super successful spine surgeries in 2014 with Dr Khurana, there was no doubt he was my go-to for some new back pain I was experiencing recently. There is no other spine surgeon I trust more. Dr Khurana reviewed my new MRIs with me and patiently consulted with me on his thoughts for next steps . He is the most professional, kind and surgeon and I cannot recommend him more highly. No matter where I live, I will always come back to Dr Khurana for any/all spine procedures!

Without question the most capable, professional and caring neurosurgeon a patient could ever hope for. I had my first surgery with him, a cervical fusion, in 2005, followed by a second one, a lumbar fusion in 2010. Going from truly unbearable pain which in both cases went on for months, following my procedures I woke up nearly 100% cured; an absolute miracle of relief. It's been 13 years since my last surgery, and my congenital issues have again reared their ugly heads. I flew from Portland, Maine last week to see him and was once again comforted entirely by his extraordinary kindness and understanding, his bedside manner exceptional as always, and I'm planning my next fusion one level up. Beginning with his office staff, Nancy And everyone else with whom I've had the pleasure of dealing, Dr. Khurana's practice practice is second to none. I literally trust him (and his exceptional office support ) with my life. Make an appointment and be prepared to wait a bit sometimes, but be confident in knowing that when it's your turn he will give you all the time in the world. There could truly be no more outstanding, talented, informative, personable surgeon, and I feel so fortunate to have found him. 💙

Exceptional, compassionate care! Dr. Khurana is a patient, kind, wildly competent surgeon. He instills confidence. Many great surgeons lack bedside manner. Dr. Khurana delivers in all aspects. 10 days after 3 cervical spine disc replacements, virtually all of my major pain symptoms associated with severe foramimal stenosis are gone. I will be forever grateful to him and his crew. The staff in the surgical center were also truly outstanding. I’ve been told I can be a “tough customer.” I can tell you Dr. Khurana and company far exceeded all my expectations-which were high to begin with! May all the good Dr. Khurana and staff do come back to them in abundance…

Professional, knowledgeable. Staff is very helpful and kind. Dr. Khurana is wonderful. He addressed my concerns, answered my questions and took time with me. I feel really good knowing that my back and neck are in his care.

I am so grateful to Dr. Khurana and his staff. I am leaving on a lengthy trip today but a couple of days ago my back was so painful I was worried I had reinjured it and I wouldn’t be safe to travel. When I called the office and spoke with Nancy, she was unbelievably accommodating and arranged an MRI the same evening. Then, she squeezed me into Dr. Khurana’s busy schedule the following day!!! I received great treatment from Dr. Khurana and he confirmed that I was able to travel!!! I am soooo very grateful to Nancy, David and Dr. Khurana for their compassion, sensitivity and treatment. I feel very fortunate to be connected with Dr. Khurana and his office.

Dr. Khurana has been my neuro-surgeon for almost 2 years. He performed two surgeries on me- my neck and my lower back on February 2021. Dr.Khurana is an excellent surgeon, very good bed side manners, very caring, lots of empathy. I highly recommend him for any one who has spine issues.

Dr Khurana has been very influential in my life and he is humble about it, that he probably doesn't realize that. I am a Spine and Sports Medicine physical therapist that has been helping people with debilitating spinal pain. I only bring that up because when I had back surgery, he demonstrated good bedside manner, compassion, expertise and most importantly, I've been able to perform at a high level... lifting weights and being active with three kids 15 years later. When I had to make the decision on who to do my spine surgery at age 28, (I am 42 now) I went and had consultations by the best. I was a spine specialist at that time and went to numerous conferences, so those were who I reached out to. I had second, third , and fourth opinions. Khurana was my fourth and he was the only one that showed compassionate care. Btw I had a disc that was sequestered (broke off). He taught me that being the best is not enough as a practitioner. It is important to also be compassionate and caring. To practice listening. We don't get taught this in school. I've referred my colleagues and patients to him and they come back with the same beautiful stories as you are reading. I hope Dr Khurana is reading this review and to know that he is truly a gem in this field. Wishing everyone who is reading this the best recovery. I know it's a scary place to be when you are in pain and deciding to have surgery or not, you don't know who to trust, and I hope this LONG over due review can help you.

I had an L2/L3 micro decompression with Dr. Khurana in May, 2022. All things considered, I could not be happier...of course wishing I wasn't in this boat, I found Dr. Khurana and his office superb. Kind, caring, knowledgeable, practical...they put the package together well. At the outset, we had some small issues with getting timely return calls, but that issue went away once we got really into the process. It's clear (in a very good way) that they do this for a living and really, really, really know what they are doing...the issues I had were, for them, commonplace. I guess that's where a patient wants things to be. Physically, I am vastly better (I can walk more than 50 yards again!) with some relatively minor residual nerve issues in my lower leg. Dr. Khurana is, again, very knowledgeable, considerate, caring, practical and communicative about those issues...in the real world (again, of course, wishing I didn't have them), I couldn't ask for anything more. Overall, I am extremely pleased to have chosen Dr. Khurana for my surgery.

Dr K is a good caring, SMART Dr

Dr. Khurana is a professional, conscientious and brilliant surgeon. He did great work on me. Told me everything he was going to do before he did it and then did it flawlessly. My cervical spine case was very complicated, and most doctors would not attempt to do this type of surgery. He performed the surgery with confidence, and now, after two months, I can say the result has been excellent.  He's a great, great surgeon. I'm delighted and happy. His staffs are also great. Nancy and Noor have been very kind and more than helpful.

My visit on Wednesday July 13th was great! All my concerns were addressed and I am thankful for the kind treatment I received during my visit!

Dr Khurana is the most kind and supportive doctor. He listens to my concerns and welcomes my questions m.

Sanjay Khurana, MD

Dr. Khurana is a very thoughtful listener who carefully considers all the treatment options when caring for his patients. When surgery is necessary he is very skillful and gives a clear picture of what to expect from the surgery itself and the postoperative course.

Sanjay Khurana, MD

Amazing doctor. Top Notch! Extremely knowledgeable, informative and immediately gains your trust. The staff is professional, supportive and kind.

Sanjay Khurana, MD

Dr. Khurana and his Staff are an Exceptional and Professional Medical Team. Personable and Caring. Dr. Khurana is an excellent and knowledgeable surgeon. I had extensive spinal decompression and lower back fusion surgeries 6 months ago. My treatment and overnight stay at the LA Spine Surgery Center was 1st Class. I am healing exceptionally well and I am relatively pain free now. I am looking forward to getting back on the golf course soon. I highly recommend Dr. Khurana.

Sanjay Khurana, MD

I knew at hello Dr. Khurana was the surgeon for me. His impressive pedigree aside, he has the best bedside manner. When he speaks to you, his explanations are very detailed, and his demeanor is gentle and calm. I had my surgery during the lockdown, so when I woke up and saw Dr. Khurana standing there telling me the surgery went beautifully, it was so reassuring. I can’t thank Dr. Khurana enough.

Sanjay Khurana, MD

It is my great pleasure to give Dr Sanjay Khurana a five star rating. I am a retired surgeon that suffered a catastrophic disc rupture with 16 by 9 mm extrusion that broke off L2/3 and entered my spinal canal. The diagnosis was complicated by prior back issues and a recent post motor vehicle accident MRI that was unremarkable. The accident was in June and MRI was in July and by September the pain was debilitating and under pain management I was taking methadone and OxyContin like candy. Short story a renowned Spine surgeon based on the July MRI diagnosed Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome. WRONG. Referred to Dr Khurana for a second opinion who did a long and compassionate examination and ordered a new MRI that revealed the monster fragment. Dr Khurana , broke his schedule and operated on me within 3 days as emergency. With in a week post op I was opioid free. Dr Khurana is a brilliant diagnostician,skillful surgeon , and remarkable human being. I am , four years later , enjoying Dr ASG PS I am 71 year old and do not Yelp. Hence I used my wife's account for this Yelp . Thanks dear!

Sr. Khurana was empathetic and clearly expert at what he does. He communicated well and was very clear in explaining my options. Highly recommend him.

Sanjay Khurana, MD

Do it! See Dr. Khurana. Trust Dr. Khurana's judgement, his surgical skills and his up to date methods. I did and my mobility is significantly improved and my pain is significantly reduced. I tried all conservative approaches and consulted with many surgeons before I had the fortune of meeting Dr. Khurana. When he explained his approach to cervical and spinal health, I knew I found my surgeon. He is patient, personable and is an athlete who understands the importance of staying active. Everyone who works in his office (Amanda and Elaine :)) is knowledgable, professional and kind.

Sanjay Khurana, MD

I absolutely recommend Dr Khurana. He is caring, knowledgeable and down to earth. Three things I love in a doctor. I completely trusted him the whole way and appreciated his treatment

Sanjay Khurana, MD

I have been dealing with spinal issues since 2009 and thanks to the wonderful expertise of Dr Khurana, it has been a lot more manageable. I had a microdisectomy on my L4-5 region in 2012 & most recently (July 2020), cervical ADR 3/4. Both times I felt instant relief and very minimal post surgical pain. Thanks to him, have been able to live a quality life with minimal disruption. A brilliant surgeon and an equally caring/kind gentleman, I will always be forever grateful for his compassionate care he has given me from the very beginning
