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.

I have had two surgeries with Dr. Sahni. Both have been very successful! He is kind, frank, and knows what he is talking about. I appreciate his honesty and his straight forward ability to help me understand what is going on with my spine. I totally trust his recommendations for my spine health.

STAY AWAY
Dr Sahni performed a fusion on 2 levels. He only put hardware on one side and my bone graft failed. He put me into surgery the day it broke off, woke me up with no pain meds, realized he didn't fix it, put me back under, woke me up with no meds again and had "fixed" it. I now have foot drop, CRPS, and permanent nerve damage. He said my fusion was successful yet I had ZERO bone growth. Look into him, see if he's allowed to do surgery at any of the hospitals in NB or Seguin.. he's not. He ruined my life and didn't care. I have since had a fusion repair by a neurosurgeon who was shocked at how terrible my surgeries were handled by Dr Sahni. STAY AWAY!

I first went here in late June and was very impressed with Dr. Sahni and his plan for me. However since then I have been having trouble with the office staff giving me different stories and not relaying messages or returning my calls. I now see why before I left that first appointment a young lady took me into a room and asked me to complete a survey on my visit right then and there as she stood there. Recently I had called to say that the prescribed pt was making my back worse and wanted them to ask Dr. Sahni what to do. I found out yesterday that the girl I spoke to never even asked him. I had since gone to PT four more times. I was told to stop PT yesterday. I was also given the runaround about my back brace fitting appt and Insursnce coverage. I’m just very disappointed that I went there on the recommendation of another doctor but I’ve now had continuing issues with the office staff/communication. I do however appreciate the sweet office manager taking the time to talk to me.

Dr. Sahni is amazing! After seeing 3 other doctors that acted like I just wanted pain meds and it was all in my head, I looked into Dr.Sahni. This is the best decision I have ever made. I am happy to say that I have been pain free for the last 5 years. Thank you Dr. Sahni for everything you have done for me!

I have been a patient of Dr.Sahni’s since I was in my teens. I suffered an injury to my lower lumbar after being dropped by fellow cheerleaders at a game. Dr.Sahni treated me and helped me get back out there. He doesn’t jump to whatever is the easiest fix, his goal is to get to the root of the problem so that you are able to get back to normal. Years of being an athlete have caught up to me which is why I still have Dr.Sahni treat me to this day. He is able to keep me active and going strong without living my life on pain medications or other short term fixes. I trust his judgement and have always appreciated his professional opinion. You will not find another doctor like him anywhere. He has impeccable bedside manor and will explain things to you in a way that you can explain.
