5.0 star star star star starDr. Bhatia welcomed me and took time to listen to issues I was having. He reviewed X-rays and reports with me and explained everything in great detail so I could understand my issues. He discussed a treatment plan and explained procedures and possible outcomes and next steps. I am so grateful to him for listening and taking time with me so I can understand the pain and problems I've been having for so long. I am grateful for his treatment plan and look forward to healing.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Bhatia was easy-going and friendly as well as explaining what was going on with my hip very thoroughly. I’m starting with PT and hoping that helps but if it doesn’t, he explained other treatment options.

5.0 star star star star starHe was quick to come up with a diagnosis. My only reason it’s not a 10, is I wish I had a little more clarity on what he wants me to do next. The nurse was very helpful and filled in most of the gaps.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Bhatia has been providing me exceptional care since approximately September 2020. While rehabilitation of a severe and debilitating distal humerus of the right arm break along with adhesive capsulitis of my right shoulder, I was having left hip pain. Dr. Bhatia assessed my hip and found a labral tear. He prescribed PT and cortisone injections... along with a hopeful PRP injection. Dr. Bhatia never gave up on me. He operated on me in November of 2021. While He could have chosen many other candidates over me, (people with better insurance, younger athletes etc.). Dr. Bhatia used his expertise to operate on me for 5 hours .. fixing a labral tear requiring 5 anchors and smoothing of the femoral head+pincer/Cam lesions.I know my quality of life will be so much better with my right hip fixed.I am truly blessed. Northwestern orthopedics providing state of the art care. Especially with Dr. Bhatia's experience and expertise in joint preservation. I could not have received better care. Thank you Dr Bhatia!

5.0 star star star star starDr. Bahtia recommended a gel injection for my knee and it worked very well for a full year. I was able to do sports and was unaware that I have arthritis during my daily activities. I just had my second injection and plan to enjoy activities this year as well.

5.0 star star star star starProfessional. To the point. Explained his reasoning for continued care therapy and why I needed to go to PT at hospital which has many more choices of specialized equipment than in-home PT therapist coming to me can offer. Told me why I needed certain type of sling rather than other choices. Told me when I would have follow-up. Told me what to expect. Maggie and Corrine and his staff were excellent and explaining details and expectations. At 72 years I have never broken any large bone in my body nor have I had experience with any family members doing likewise. They explained everything more than once if I needed clarification.
