Dr. Bhattacharyya is an excellent surgeon/doctor! He takes time to explain everything to you and he listens intently to his patients…so many doctors don’t but he does always! I feel very fortunate and grateful to call him my Surgeon…he is always there for me and even takes time to talk on the phone to me. He is an Amazing Surgeon!!!

It was as a great visit. Dr. B is very friendly and knowledgeable, I value his opinion about a medication I am about to take and his opinion was the opposite. I think his second opinion is valid and I welcome his medical advice. I should have asked him more questions, perhaps next time. His assistant sent me my X-ray as requested! Thanks

you want the short version: I recommend Dr. Bhattacharyya highly.
If you want the details, here’s why:
Three weeks after my hip replacement, the original pain that led me to surgery is completely gone. There’s still some minor discomfort, especially after PT, but overall my recovery is on track.
I did extensive research before choosing Dr. B because, after a bad accident, I needed someone with expertise in both trauma and hip replacement. He evaluated whether my prior hardware needed to be removed during surgery and made the right call—all with great judgment and skill.
In sum:
• My pain is gone.
• My case was complex, and Dr. Bhattacharyya handled it expertly.
• I recommend him without hesitation to anyone needing specialized hip care.
