Dr. Cherian K Sajan, MD

Dr Sajan has been treating me for several years. He is concerned about his patients. I need extra lidocaine when I get shots and he understands to help me stay focused on quality of life without pain. Recently I herniated my lower back and have become very weak in my legs. The shots are helping to reducing the swelling. I am avoiding surgery in my neck and back as long as the shots are working! Thank you Dr Sajan

Discharges patients he doesn't like without and actual medical reasoning. He 100% fails his hippocratic oath.

After 6 Years of going to the same pain clinic, Sajan dismissed me from the practice without even providing a reason. The last time I'd seen him, he was rushing to get me out of his office so he could take his kids to the Circus. I know because he discussed it on his cell phone while I was in the room. First time I've experienced a Doctor taking a personal call during a medical appt. I might have been in there for 10 minutes? He rec I have a nerve block, refilled my pain meds and insisted on cancelling my following appt with him, even though I still had questions. I was limping along behind him in the hallway, asking "What do I do about physical therapy? What about the results of my blood work? ", which we had not reviewed for some two months. When I made it to the front desk, the scheduling staffer and a nurse that me, asked what was wrong, and I tried to explain the drive by appt feeling I had. Turns out, Dr Sajan overheard and came back to the front desk, assertively… walking towards, wanting to know what the problem was. But he didn't want to know, he just wanted to tell me to see the new physician's asst in the future. Really? I've been struggling with a spine pain flareup since August. We'd done two rhizotomies, S1 and L5. Several cortisone injections and epidurals from the low back, where I've had a fusion, through the thoracic spine all the way up to the cervical spine, where I've also had a fusion. The pain wasn't going away, but Dr Sajan was recommending a physician's assistant as the best option the clinic had to offer. Phys Assts can't perform any of these procedures. This was a Friday. The following Tues, when I thought I was going in for the nerve block, being done by my favorite clinic doctor, I got the voicemail runaround, until finally I got a live person. Someone named Gavin, whom I didn't know, wasn't given a last name, wasn't told his title. Gavin kindly informed me that the practice could no longer treat me. No reason. Just wouldn't. He was very nice through my devastation, shock, etc Said I could call anytime. Two weeks and multiple phone calls later, I still didn't receive the form I had to fill out in order to get my medical records. Thanks guys.

I have been to a number of Physicians for different reasons, but he has the best bedside manners and seems to be the most knowledgeable of all. He is very empathetic and spends quality time with patients. Would recommend him without any hesitation!!!
