Thank you Dr. Ramkumar for your amazing talant. The surgery you performed on my new hip is better than I expected, like a dream come true. I never knew I would be walking so soon pain free. After the surgery my new hip feels right at home by following your Recommended pre-surgery exercises and after surgery physical therapy 😀 You are the best!

Dr. Milstein is incredibly thorough, compassionate and caring physician. I have already had him replace one knee and I’m about to have the other done and I couldn’t be more confident in his skill and my treatment in the past and upcoming!

Once upon a time, in the not-so-fairy-tale land of Chronic Painville, lived an adventurous soul (that's me!), who, following an automotive misadventure that would make even a stunt driver wince, ended up with a neck and back more twisted than a mystery novel plot - think C6/7 and L5/S1 playing the lead villains in this spine-tingling saga. Picture this: a disc replacement at C-6 and 7 became my immediate quest, as I was in such excruciating pain that moving my neck felt like I was auditioning for the role of a non-flexible robot. Now, disc replacement surgery at the time was the new kid on the block in the US, strutting down the medical runway with its shiny new potential. Lumbar spine, though? Not so much on the VIP list yet. And fusion? Oh, I'd heard the tales of woe and stiffness - a motley crew of friends still in agony or moving like vintage robots post-fusion had me saying, "Thanks, but no thanks." So, there I was, waiting in the wings, pain as my constant companion, for years, dreaming of the day when lumbar disc replacement would hit the mainstream. And let me tell you, the idea of doctors rummaging around the front of my torso gave me the heebie-jeebies - like, serious "Are you sure you don't need a map?" vibes. But then, as the pain crescendoed to a level of unbearable that had me contemplating a career as a human pretzel, I embarked on a quest to find the Merlin of spine surgery. Enter Dr. Khurana - a wizard, a magician, a veritable rock star of the OR. Initially, he was like, "Hmm, your disc has left the building, and we're talking bone-on-bone - wanna see the MRI to prove it? Might have to go the fusion route, but let's give it a whirl." D-Day arrived, and guess what? Dr. Khurana pulled off the impossible with the panache of a maestro conducting a symphony - no fusion, just pure, unadulterated surgical genius. His team? Angels in scrubs, each more caring and considerate than the last. And Dr. Khurana? A man so passionate about his craft, he could probably perform surgery with his eyes closed (not that he did, mind you - just saying, he's that good). Sure, a year later and I'm still on nodding terms with some residual pain, but it's nothing - a mere whisper compared to the cacophony of agony I endured for years. So here's to Dr. Khurana and his crew - the rock stars of the medical world, who gave me back a semblance of normalcy and taught me that, sometimes, the best fairy tales don't involve princes or dragons, but gifted surgeons with the power to change lives.

In 2011 i was referred to Dr Khurana because my case was extremely severe. Best referral ever. I have a lemon of a skeleton which continues to erode but thank goodness i have a great Dr who knows how to repair it. His knowledge and explanations are thorough and covey the overall picture of what, where, when, why, and how to proceed. If you need a surgeon, this is THE one you want

Dr. Wassef did a hip replacement this week and it went very well. He was so kind and professional and made me feel at ease. His PA Jason was equally wonderful. I would recommend Dr. Wassef to anyone needing a total hip replacement.

Dr Ramkumar did an ACL reconstruction on me and his duty of care was amazing. On arrival he was very professional and extremely personable which put me at ease starting from our initial meeting, surgery and throughout aftercare. I followed every detail of his instructions which he provides online which was very helpful. My physical therapist couldn’t believe that I was able return to work just 2 1/2 weeks after surgery and asked if he was wearing a cape… lol ( definitely has some special gift). He ensures the highest level of care and compassion, making sure every detail is explained and understood, which makes you feel completely at ease and in very capable hands. He is an asset to his profession and I highly recommend him!

Dr. Ram is the best orthopedic surgeon in the Orange County area. My wife was on her third hip surgery and he fixed it. His revision made it so we can still run and hike together.

There are no words to truly express our gratitude to Dr. Khurana. He is a genius surgeon with a heart of gold. My husband spent 50 years in agonizing pain until Dr Khurana performed an intensely difficult surgery that left my husband pain free for the first time in his life. I myself had a very complicated surgery that Dr Khurana performed on me completely successfully. I was terrified and this deeply compassionate doctor walked me through my fears and changed my life..Dr Khurana's commitment to his patients care is priceless and heartfelt. He is simply a very special human being and a master surgeon...We are truly blessed to have him in our lives...

Dr. Kamrava and I met a little over a year ago when my chief pain complaint was the left side of my neck. I have a complex history with injuries — I played contact sports my whole life like football and lacrosse, boxed in college, served in the Army, experienced a hit and run on my motorcycle, had multiple snowboarding/wakeboarding crashes, and to top it all off I had brain surgery a couple of years ago for Chiari Malformation. Basically, my body has been through the wringer and now that I’m 30 years old, the pain has caught up to me. Dr. Kamrava has successfully reduced my overall pain in the last year by about 80%. I was miserable when I saw him — I couldn’t sleep, I couldn’t sit in my chair long enough to focus on work, and the future looked bleak. How was I going to progress in my career? How was I going to start a family and live my life? The pain was constant and it was so fatiguing. Dr. Kamrava stuck by my side as we resolved each problem in my body. I had arthritis in my cervical spine so we did a couple of injections and an RFA — this improved my pain by 20%. Then we discovered that my left shoulder labrum was torn, along with part of my supraspinatus tendon so we injected it with PRP — my overall body pain improved by 30%. The next thing we found was that I had a couple herniated discs in my neck, which Dr. Kamrava just injected 2 weeks ago — this helped SIGNIFICANTLY by another 30%. Dr. Kamrava brings confidence, optimism, compassion, and expertise to the table. He’s open minded and is always willing to answer questions. I’m not completely pain free yet, but I’m 90% there. Dr. Kamrava and Nora have been so great to work with. I would recommend this team over and over again. They really are out there changing lives. Thank you!!! Daniel

I’m 6 weeks post-op from a surgical hip dislocation surgery performed by Dr. Ramkumar. With this being my first surgery, I was very nervous. Dr. Ramkumar made me feel extremely comfortable by thoroughly explaining the process including possible outcomes. The procedure was very successful and couldn’t be happier with the outcome! I no longer feel the pain and discomfort that I was feeling prior to the surgery. He personally checked on me multiple times after surgery. His dedication to patients is above and beyond my expectations. His post op protocols ensured my recovery would go smoothly. My situation was very unique and I’m so grateful Dr. Ramkumar was the one performing the surgery. I highly recommend anyone who is in need of hip or knee surgery to seek him out. You will not be disappointed with the results!

Dr. Khurana is the most skilled, most intelligent, most experienced surgeon I have met. And he also happens to be the nicest and the most compassionate doctor to top it all off. Dr. Khurana performed my third spinal surgery which was a very difficult surgery. Other surgeons did not think they could do what Dr. Khurana did. Having had two previous neck surgeries, I had a basis for comparison. Dr. Khurana by far showed the most professionalism, elite skill, and the most compassion. He waited well into the evening/night after my surgery just so he could talk to me and see how I felt when I woke up from anesthesia. His medical team was just as stellar. The way that he and his team took care of me made my first two surgical experiences elsewhere seem barbaric. I wholeheartedly trust Dr. Khurana.

I was recently a patient of Dr. Ramkumar and I have to say he is one of the best doctors that I have ever had. His team is amazing as well. He never made me feel like he was in a rush to see another patient. He explained everything he would be doing in the surgery and answered any questions that I asked. After the surgery, he followed up with me a few times before the post-op appointment to make sure everything was going well after the surgery. He even reached out to me over the weekend to make sure all was well. The medical field has changed a lot, especially in the more recent years and I have to say, it is refreshing to have a doctor, and his staff, with excellent bedside manners and actually be genuine.

I recently underwent a hip resurfacing procedure performed by Dr. Ramkumar, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. From the initial consultation to post-operative care, Dr. Ramkumar took the time to thoroughly explain the hip resurfacing procedure, addressing all my concerns and ensuring I felt confident in the decision to move forward. The surgery itself was a success, and the pain relief I now experience is beyond what I had hoped for. The post-operative care provided by Dr. Ramkumar and his team is exceptional. They monitored my recovery closely, providing clear instructions for rehabilitation exercises and ensuring I had all the necessary support during my recovery period. I highly recommend Dr. Ramkumar to anyone seeking a skilled and caring orthopedic surgeon for hip resurfacing. I am grateful for the positive impact the doctor has had on my life through this transformative procedure.
