Dr. Umesh Thakur Bhagia, MD

Dr. Bhagia did my mom's hip replacement and she is so happy. When I had a problem I knew I had to go to him. Kind doctor who takes the time to listen to your problem and looks into all possibilities to find the correct diagnosis. He was not only able to diagnose, but was able to do surgery to fix my problem. His staff is so nice to me and all my paperwork for unemployment and disability was done on time. Highly recommend!!!

Office staff is the worst I've ever had to deal with. We ended up going to a different Doctor because we could not get any responses from them even after a MONTH of calling. No one EVER answers the phone and they never call back. DONE!

Doctor Baghia is a true professor/doctor, I had my first TKR (going on 3 weeks recovery) his whole staff is on another level, caring, professionals, I have been to many doctors offices…….but this level of care I have never encountered before. The physician assistant “Jodie” is an angel that GOD put on this earth such a caring and knowledgeable person, and really listens to the patients. If I can give them 100 stars…..I would. Thank you all (the West Hills office) for your outmost care and love you give to your patients????

I could barely walk for three years, in my fifties.. very active all my life. I developed degenerative arthritis in both hips. Both hips disengrated. I was in alevel 9-10 for pain. After my surgery the pain was gone! First hip was six week recovery. Second hip, two weeks recovery and I was walking at a brisk pace! I can easily hike four or five miles up & down hills! I owe my life to this doctor! Dr Bhagia is the best doctor! Thank you Sir! You gave me my life back. ??

I had a amazing experience with Dr. Bhagia and his staff. Very professional, organized and helpful. I am amazed my scar is almost healed after 3 wk!!! My recovery has been quick!!!

Great doctor who really cares about his patients.

Dr. Bhagia is truely a merical worker. He has replaced both of my hips as well as arthoscopic surgery on my right knee. He has transformed a life of pain and agony to one with a new zeal in doing activities previously that could not be done. Not only is Dr. Bhagia a gifted surgeon, he also ans developed an outstanding staff at his office. Do not know where I would be without this team of professionals.

Excellent Doctor

As a stuntman it was very important that my quality of life would not change after the surgery and he was 100% right, it did not... was very happy with my surgery and was able to continue my career without any problems....

Wonderful Dr

Really Awesome Doctor

The wait time is terrible. One hour in waiting room then one hour in room to see doctor. But the wait is WORTH IT! Umesh Bhagia is the best Orthopedic Surgeon around. He did a total hip replacement and I was back to work in 4 weeks! No pain! No limping! NOTHING! Amazing doctor!!!!!!!!

I call Dr Bhagia the gentle giant.. He truly is an amazing Dr. and cares about you and your concerns. Highly recommend.

He is an AMAZINGLY nice dr who I felt very comfortable with and had an accurate diagnosis. If I have to have surgery soon for total knee replacement will definitely use him!

Just great

Since I was diagnosed with degenerative arthritis in both kness and enduring a terrible pain for almost 12 years. I finally found a great Doctor with such professionalism and compassion to his patients that since he perform my first full knee replacement on 2013 and after the outcome of my left knee I decided to contact Dr Baghia for my other knee surgery and my experienced has been just wonderfull. Dr Baghia is a professional, knowledgable doctor with high quality standars in his work and medical ethics. I will always see him with such gratitude because I have a better quality of life, movement and freedom know I can take care and enjoy my beautiful garden!!! Thanks

When I called to make my appointment, I was told to arrive 30 minutes early to fill out paper work. I arrived 30 minutes early and filled out my paper work for a 10:00 a.m. appointment. I then sat and waited in the waiting room. When 11:00 rolled around, I was still waiting to see the doctor. I needed to get back to work, so I asked the lady at the front desk how long it would be. She informed me it would be 90 more minutes. She told me I could leave and run errands and come back. ERRANDS?! I had to get back to work! I asked the lady at the front desk if it would be a three hour wait for a five minute visit with the doctor, and she said yes. Why would I want to see a doctor who has no respect for his patients or their time and who's going to push them out the door like cattle? I asked for my money back and made an appointment with Dr. Byron Patterson in Encino, who saw me the same day, spent time evaluating my broken arm, and treated me with respect.

he may take a while to wait for but over all his great he takes a while cause he takes his time to diagnose his patients. and i should know i have tried 5 doctors and dr bhagia is the only doctor who was able to find out what was wrong with my knee.

I waited two hours in the waiting room to see Dr. Bhagia...I was a first time patient...too long!
