The Los Angeles Business Journal's Top Doctors feature recognizes physicians across the region who are regarded as leaders in their field by their peers and their patients. Dr. Amandeep Bhalla was profiled as one of Los Angeles' Top Doctors for his work in orthopedic spine surgery at MemorialCare Long Beach Medical Center, and was named again the following year.
The profile highlights the path that brought him to Long Beach: undergraduate studies at the University of Pennsylvania, a medical degree from the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, an orthopaedic surgery residency at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, and the Harvard Combined Spine Fellowship at Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham and Women's Hospital. He is board certified by the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery.
At MemorialCare Long Beach Medical Center, Dr. Bhalla serves as Medical Director of the Spine Center and Vice Chair of Orthopaedic Surgery. His practice covers degenerative conditions of the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine, adult spinal deformity, spine trauma and spinal tumors, with a particular focus on minimally invasive and robotic assisted techniques. He also teaches residents and fellows as faculty at Harbor-UCLA and the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA.
"Compassionate, evidence-based care."
What the recognition rewards is the same approach patients meet in clinic: time spent explaining the condition in plain language, a preference for non operative care whenever it will work, and surgery only when it is the right answer. Read the profile on the Los Angeles Business Journal website.
