I had been having lower back pain and sciatic nerve pain down my left leg. I consulted with Dr. Bhalla, and he set me up with an MRI. The MRI showed that I in fact had a herniated disc and that it was pinching my Siatic nerve pretty severely. Dr. Bhalla gave me my options, and since I had experienced this same situation 25 years ago, we decided my best option was surgery. Today, I am pain free, and have resumed my normal life style ( running, working out etc.) I’m really glad I got the tip, to see Dr Bhalla. He was easy to talk to, professional, and gave me his confidence in his abilities. I would recommend Dr. Bhalla to anyone with the same back issues that I had, and with total confidence.

Dr Bhalla spent the time needed to rebuild my diseased neck; he was the first person to visit me in the hospital the morning after my surgery; and he has been there every step of the way in my recovery. I highly recommend this skilled, compassionate individual. S. M.

After x-rays and a MRI, Dr. Bhalla provided me with options to relieve my pain. After many discussions I chose to have Anterior Cervical Diskectomy and fusion w/instrumentation C4-7 surgery. I was discussing my upcoming surgery with friends and family and they would tell me they knew of someone who had the same surgery and it was very painful and I would be on bed rest for months. Dr. Bhalla had informed me of all risks associated with surgery but was confident he could help me relieve the pain thru surgery. He made me feel comfortable about going thru with this procedure. I attended a class and learned about surgery. I am very happy I had the surgery, my downtime was only three weeks with limited weight restrictions - best of all no more pain. I am so thankful to Dr. Bhalla who always has a smile and is very pleasant and easy to talk to. > Charmaine 10-2017 C.

He thoroughly explained my options for treatment and even suggested for me to get a second opinion before I decided to have surgery with him. The surgery was success and I'm very thankful for Dr. Bhalla's care during my whole ordeal. J.

I had shooting pain down my leg and my health department doctor either thought I was faking or didn't know what was wrong. I went to see Dr. Bhalla and before even looking at my x-rays or MRI's, he immediately said it was a bulging disc. Physical therapy wasn't an option because it was a bad case, but Dr. Bhalla told me what to expect before the surgery, during the surgery, and after it. He was genuinely concerned with how I was doing and looked very happy after I was healed. Long story short, if you need to see an orthopedic doctor, I would request to be seen by Dr. Bhalla. Excellent doctor! J.

Dr. Bhalla spent time with me explaining my options and showing me the surgery procedure. He explained post surgery recovery and answered all my questions. Very thorough and friendly office. K.
