Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Our mother was still in excruciating pain. We called the office 3 times and no one called us back. We had to go to a different physician for help.

I have seen a lot of Arrogant Ortho’s in my 64 years. But what a refreshing experience dealing with Dr. Bahu. Has a SUPPER PERSONALITY!!! Explained what he would do during my surgery. Any question I had, he answered in a way my wife and I understood. Thank you Dr. Bahu for a great surgery experience! I would recommend him to all with shoulder issues.

Nice staff and Doctor but pay attention to their billing practices. They charged my insurance ~$350 for a 5 minute appointment. When I complained their office manager even stated, we overcharge insurance knowing they won't pay for it all. Which seems like it is a poor way to run a business and take care of patients.
