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.

Dr. Arora has gone beyond his duties. My insurance did not want to pay for the treatments and he made the time to speak to the insurance and made them see how important and needed these treatments were for me. Seen other pain specialists drs. and they did not do anything but prescribed pain killers. His staff is great! Always accessible and reminding me of my appointments and trying their best to give me appointments at the time that is was most convenient for me.

Good. Dr. Arora and Sheila are knowledgeable, courteous and over-all I am satisfied with the practice. There have been multiple administrative and billing issues. Also issues with regards to clarity of their responsibilities as a provider under my health insurance which caused unnecessary time to resolve. Overall however I would refer others to Dr Arora if they were in need of pain management.

I was in extreme pain when I came to see Doctor Arora. I explained to him the problems I was having in my back and neck. He came up with a solid treatment plan, and course of action. My back is feeling great now. He has helped me where other doctors could not do anything for me. Thank You Doctor Arora.

I have been a patient of Dr. Arora's for about 15 years. He is extremely attentive. He is never in a rush, gives you all the time you need. He will discuss what the options are going forward and allows you to make your own decision. I cannot say enough as to how GREAT Dr. Arora is as a physician and a person.

Dr Arora is a very knowledgeable, a good listener and compassionate doctor. I was in his office with my mom (who doesn't speak English) because my mom had a knee injury and she was in pain. He took the time to examine her knee and he was waiting for me to translate to my mom. He helped my mom with the pain. Highly recommended.
