Dr Bawa summarizes his approach to treating patients as follows:
Providing patient care is a blessing and is not a privilege I take for granted. I pride myself on doing all I can to improve the quality of life of my patients in a compassionate, educated, and thorough manner. I believe in a comprehensive approach to patient care, beginning initially with non-operative modalities. The majority of patients improve with physical therapy, acupuncture, chiropractic modalities, traction, and properly selected injections. When these treatments do not succeed, I have strict surgical indications which lead to good clinical outcomes. I treat my patients as if they are part of my family.
Dr.Bawa is a long time local resident of San Diego, proud father of two wonderful children, and is a family man with a talented spouse. Dr Bawa runs his own private practice in San Diego, and also serves as a consultant ‘Spine specialist’ for ‘The Hosalkar Institute.’
