Dr Bhat is an excellent orthopedic doctor. I have had excruciating pain in my back and legs and he is a miracle doctor! He is also a very caring person with his patients. I highly recommend him.

I got into Dr Bhat's office pretty quickly even with the staffing shortages that many businesses were facing. He ordered the appropriate images (he has his own xray device). Reviewed the images, provided the first shot and set-up a treatment plan all while explaining the next step. His office completed all of the paperwork required. There was never any anxiety or stress and his staff was always interested in how things were feeling. They even setup physical therapy to assist in my recovery and healing. DDD and 5 disks leaking between lower back and neck.

I’ve been seeing Dr Bhat for several years. I also had an ACDF performed by Dr Lapp (same office, Merrimack Valley Spine Center). I highly recommend this office. The PA’s, NP’s and the entire staff at this location are really awesome. I continue to see Dr Bhat for trigger point injections. I would highly recommend this practice this practice if you find yourself in need of the services they provide.

Dr Bhat is an excellent orthopedic doctor. I have had excruciating pain in my neck for months . He injected me with cortisone and sent me to therapy . I’m pain free . I’m petrified of needles .His caring bed side manner got me through it . Highly recommend.

Dr. Bhat is a highly skilled doctor who has helped many times throughout my life. At the age of 26, I was in a car accident that left my in agony for two years until I met Dr. Bhat. At the time I had seen many doctors who were unable to help me however on my 1st with Dr. Bhat he was confident I had an SI issue. I received my first diagnostic injection of lidocaine and for the first time in two years, I was able to so many movements I hadn’t been unable to do for so long & pain-free to! Shortly after, I had my first injection & I was back to my old self in no time; giving me back my life again. Unfortunately for me I have endured a few other bodily injuries over the years and each time I sought out Br. Bhat; every time I have been grateful to be able to turn to Dr. Bhat in my time of need. Most recently I had a fall at work, leaving me with a pinched nerve in my neck. I again turned to Dr. Bhat. I love that he takes his time with his patients and gets to the bottom of the ailment,… developing a plan along with the his patient that best suits their needs. Due to all the reasons above I have recommended Dr. Bhat more times than I can remember, to friends, family members and coworkers. Everyone I have referred has been grateful for the connection. Dr. Bhat please don’t ever retire!

I had an appointment scheduled with Dr Bhat. There was some mis communication and I thought I was set to have injections for pain in my neck but I was put in for a consult. I was in a lot of pain and had been for several months so I was very distraught thinking I was not going to get any relief on this day. Dr Bhat and his staff took the time to help and after speaking had me come back after he was able to finish his morning patients and provide me with the time to help me get some pain relief before the weekend. I can not thank Dr Bhat and his staff for being so kind and understanding to help through the pain I was in. I will be following up with him in a couple weeks and I know he will do what needs to be done to get me as much pain relief as possible. I have been a patient of Dr Bhat for several years and he has been able to control both lumbar back pain/ sciatic pain relief as well as neck pain relief for me. Again, I thank you Dr Bhat for being so kind and understanding!

I cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Bhat and his team at OSA orthopedics. His approach to care is personal and thorough. As a patient, he took he time to get to know me, listen to and understand my unique needs, and develop a personalized treatment plan. Everyone at the practice - from administrators, medical assistants, and nursing staff - are warm and welcoming. They dedicate extra time getting to know their patients.  I am extremely happy with the care I’ve received from Dr. Bhat and his team and would highly recommend his practice.

After seeing Dr. Bhat and receiving a cortisone shot, I can enjoy my normal activities again! Highly recommend Dr. Bhat who took the time to explain the mechanics, the diagnosis and the options available to arrive at a pain-free day to day existence.
