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.

Great results
He put some bell between my disc that were deteriorating. Worked for about 5 yrs. Going back hopefully to do again. I did really good with that . Lasted way longer than shots.

Never again
A total waste of time and money. Would never recommend to anyone. All about procedures that do not work. Terrible experience

Buyer Beware!!!
Dr. Khosla is a wolf in sheepskin. It’s ALL about the mighty dollar! He did several procedures on me and all of them has serious negative outcomes. I honestly feel if I had continued using him I would end up in a wheelchair.

Stay Away
I started seeing Dr Khosla a few years ago and he pushed all these different surgeries on me. The first one went wrong the device he put in my back, fell apart and caused me to have more problems. I no longer can walk no longer can drive and now I’m in chronic pain daily And he will not fill my pain medication due to seeing my regular primary care doctor for daytime medicine to help with the pain. He only would prescribe at nighttime meds. He said I was seeing multiple doctors. He knew that I was seeing my primary care doctor they even talked on the phone , they were very rude and now I’m in severe pain and having to try to deal with this and having to try to find another pain specialist

More sales pitch than medical consult
I accompanied my husband to his initial consultation with Dr. Khosla's nurse practitioner. She didn't want to hear about my husband's current treatments or medical history and only wanted to push an invasive and risky spinal surgery. His concerns were repeatedly invalidated and most of the appointment with her was spent learning about a surgery he wasn't yet ready to commit to with a doctor he's never even met. My husband wasn't a patient, but a customer. The NP wasn't a healthcare worker, but a salesperson. If you're looking for a sleazy sales pitch, visit a timeshare or used car dealership. If you're looking to be treated like a patient, go elsewhere. It's unfortunate because Dr. Kholsa sounds like he's had a lot of success with this surgery. But my husband is a person, not a statistic or a customer, and I can't trust any doctor who would allow his staff to treat any patient like that.

I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Khosla, Tara, his office staff and the Abbott Representative, Andrea. After asking endless questions about my condition and treatment, I had the temporary surgical procedure for the Proclaim XR SCS implant, to see if I experienced a postive therapeutic reaction for chronic pain(Cervical neck pain/ shoulder Radiculopathy). After wearing the device for 4 days, I knew I wanted to schedule the procedure. I experienced a 60% amount of pain relief on the left side of my body and a 90% of pain relief on the right. I feel very blessed to have Dr. Khosla and his surgical team to do this life changing surgery for me.

A friend of mine saw this physician regarding back pain issues. Dr. Khosla ordered a CT scan of my friend’s spine and told him to come back for a follow-up appointment in three months. At the follow-up appointment the Physician Assistant (NOT Dr. Khosla) told my friend that he had a lesion on his spine. Dr. Khosla was a coward and would not deliver the news himself. The worst part is that they didn’t look at the CT scan until the day before the appointment. Mos physicians get the CT scans, MRI’s, etc. read/interpreted ASAP. Good, caring physicians DO NOT wait 89 days to read/interpret a CT scan. My friend passed away from Metastatic Melanoma 10 months later. Had Dr. Khosla cares about his patient he would not have waited three months to look at my friend’s CT scan. Those three months most likely would’ve bought my friend many more months of life, if not years or even remission. Rest assured Khosla, you have been reported, by multiple people, to the Texas Medical Board.

Dr. Khosla did several spinal cord procedures on me starting with correcting another doctor’s misplacement of a SCI. He also placed a DRG on my S-1. At first; he was very compassionate and understanding. This all changed after the last procedure where a lead from the SCI had to be cut off because it was embedded in scar tissue. His demeanor towards me changed 360; interrupting me, watching the clock, not being forthright in providing complete and valuable information, dismissive to the point of physically leading me out of his office. Totally unprofessional and rude. He acted very put out by my presence. In afterthought; it now makes me wonder what really happened during the last procedure. I shall never know because I cannot trust him anymore. Additionally; I left the U.S. because of so much harm by doctors and dentists. There is better health care options, for many patients, outside of the U.S., which is no longer highly regarded in comparison to the rest of the world .

3 1/2 months of treatment and he caused more pain and additional damage than he managed. Maybe a months Worth of pain medication over this period which I wasn’t concerned with but when he caused me to experience difficulties standing and walking without extreme pain and refused pain medication only giving anti inflammatory meds, which didn’t work before wanting to give additional injections. Enough is enough cancelled remaining appointments. Only seen him once with the exception of procedure times.

He did not hear me out, kept interrupting me. Was very rude and acted like he did not want me as a patient, and the whole God-complex, unless I agreed to a very intensive procedure on the first visit. Would never recommend this Dr to anyone.

I went to Dr. Khosla for a follow up appointment. He was rude and condescending. He did not show concern nor intrest in my medical problem. When I began to explain how my health was, without him asking, he cut me off to say he “got it”. Dr. Khosla is the rudest doctor I have ever been to, his bed side manner is atrocious.

Dr. Khosla is an awesome doctor! He listens and genuinely cares about his patients and the pain we are experiencing. His friendliness and his wealth of knowledge and professionalism has given me and my family a great sense of relief that I’m receiving the best care in Houston for chronic pain I suffer with daily. Thank you Dr. Khosla, you and your incredible staff are amazing and my family and I thank you for helping me to have way more good days then bad days with this chronic pain that I’ve have to suffer with for almost 30 years now.

Very bad experience. He is the rudest, most egotistical doctor I have ever gone too. AND his staff is no better. After waiting more than eight days, 3 phone calls going to voicemail and still no approval for a prescription which he ordered, I was then told that "he doesn't do prior authorizations" for medicines because he's too busy. No return phone call and had to ask if he could possibly prescribe something.... Which he did 2 days later and this to required a prior authorization. Bottom line.... 2 weeks later and still no prescription. Caudal epidural performed at a wonderful surgery center and I have never been spoken to in such a rude manner as this doctor did. I had to ask the nurse if she could find him after my procedure as I had a couple questions. P It was witnessed by 2 other people in the room and they were both absolutely appalled. Will not go to him for necessary follow up exam or ever go to him again.

Worst experience of my life. I would not refer anyone I care about to this doctor or his partner, Dr. Yancey. They are out to make a fast dollar, do not care about their patients, and their staff is just as rude as they are. These two doctors will seriously injure someone one day. Careless, and moving too fast. They push more and more injections regardless of whether they are working or not. If there are complications, they don't want to hear about it and do nothing to help.
