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.

Hip replacement
Doc took the time to explain the surgery. He said it would take 6-8 weeks for recovery. I'm in my 2nd week and up n walking (bad) pain free. Very good Dr. Knows his stuff. I'd recommend him to anyone n everyone.

Highly skilled professionals
Dr. Pandhi did my total knee replacement back in 2019 and did an outstanding job. At my last visit I saw Lauren Vander NP who was amazingly thorough and explained everything to me clearly. I was given a cortisone shot that has immensely helped me. All the staff is friendly and professional.

Dr. Pandhi and his entire staff, along with the physical therapy department at Northpoint Orthopedics, are the best—a true team. From scheduling my first appointment, through knee replacement surgery, physical therapy and follow-up appointments, I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Best ever!
Dr Pandhi and NP Lauren are the best. 4 years ago did my right hip and a quick recovery followed. Left hip just done and again on the road to quick recovery. This team makes you comfortable and well informed. I highly recommend them for your ortho needs! Like I said, Best Ever!

NP Lauren shows concern.
Follow through visit with NP Lauren was thorough. She gave suggestions for continuation of specific exercises for ongoing healing of my total knee replacement. She took the time to answer my questions without seeming to rush me out of the room.

Dr. Pandhi and NP Lauren the whole stall in fact are careful to make sure I understood my conditions and order therapy as needed. Because of my age I’m well aware of what can and cannot be done.

Loves his job
Dr Pandhi is personalbe and very throughly explains the procedure. Listened to my concerns. The surgical center was a wonderful place for the surgery and staff was great. The robotic surgery and glued incision made recovery much easier.

My husband
Doctor did a quad muscle tear repair on my husband. My husband aspirated and went into cardiac arrest after the surgery. He survived. He has since had a second cardiac arrest and is currently in the ICU. This is NOT the doctor’s fault, and I don’t blame him. However, it is a week post surgery, and I haven’t seen or heard from him. No orders on bandage changes….nothing. This lack of communication on his part is disgusting to me. This man needs to grow a heart. Just don’t. Go elsewhere.
