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.

Tibial plateau fracture
Nothing but good things to say about him! He was very informative of what he would be doing to fix my fracture, explained everything so I would feel more at ease. Very encouraging and pushed me in a good way so I can get through my healing process

Very dismissive
I had a cervical disc replacement with Dr Dhawan 7 months ago. He is a good surgeon but his bedside manner is horrible. The past two months my pain has been excruciating and he refused to order any imaging. He also refused to offer me any pain relief. I had to go to Mexico just to get another mri. The mri showed multiple issues. I will never go to him for another surgery ever again. He refuses to treat pain and caused me to suffer for months. I do not feel safe with him managing my care

Life saving support
I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional care and expertise of Dr. Dhawan. From the moment I walked into his office, I knew I was in the hands of a true professional. For years, I had been suffering from debilitating back pain that severely affected my quality of life. After countless failed treatments and consultations with other doctors, I felt hopeless. That all changed when I met Dr. DhawanDhawan took the time to thoroughly review my medical history and listened attentively to my concerns. He explained my condition in a way that was easy to understand and laid out a clear, step-by-step plan for my treatment. His confidence and calm demeanor immediately put me at ease.The surgery itself was nothing short of miraculous. Dr. Dhawan performed a complex spinal fusion procedure with incredible precision and care. The results were beyond my expectations. For the first time in years, I am pain-free and have regained my mobility.

Dr.Dhawan is by far the best orthopedic surgeon!
Dr.Dhaman is absolutely amazing! He performed two surgeries, and thanks to him I am walking. I consider myself very lucky that he was working at the hospital on the day I broke my ankle. He is a very talented surgeon, professional, knowledgeable and compassionate. Thank you Doctor Dhawan!

Best Spine surgeon in Syracuse and Central New York. Traveled all through Central New York looking for a surgeon to fix my back and Dr. Dhawan was by far the best. Came out surgery feeling better than ever before.

Dr. Dhawan performed the fourth surgery I’ve had on my spine. He gave me my life back. I’m one year post op and pain free. He was so thorough explaining what my options were, and what surgery involved. His attention during my hospital stay was so encouraging, and during follow up appointments in the office I saw him, not a PA, reviewed my X-rays with him, and clearly understood everything. Very thankful!

Two years after spinal fusion and recent MRI shows no fusion. At my last visit with Dr. Dhawan he said it was fusing fine. Nothing wrong with me no future appointments necessary. I have been in pain the whole time. He never completed the first surgery, quit less than halfway through. I am scheduled two years and I day from his failed procedure to do what he said he would do. I will be sure to get all hardware installed properly with all the hardware and firmly attached unlike Dr. Dhawan’s work
