Surgeon and Pain specialist work well together when dealing with chronic pain.
Dr is very sensitive to my pain. He goes the extra mile to relieve the discomfort. And it works! Dr Sundar is the greatest.
98% happy with Dr. Sundar and ORA. I have been going to ORA for different issues for 28 yrs. Dr. Sundar is calm, knowledgeable and professional. My only complaint is time. It is not any specific person, or doctot,it is medicine in general, pretty much you get only so much time and then you are done. It is a sad commentary of " our times".
Very nice gentleman
He is a great Dr who always listens and always helps my pain
I’ve had three spinal surgeries and seen many many doctors all over the US. So when I say Dr Sanjay Sundar is the best pain management doc I’ve seen, I’m speaking from experience. In addition to being on top of all the latest research and impressively knowledgeable, he’s also no nonsense and straightforward without being the least bit condescending. His bedside manner is awesome.
Dr. Sundar is one of the best Doctors I've had. He listens and gets to the root of the problem. If one procedure doesn't work he'll try something different. He's definitely someone I can count on.
My visits were very pleasant. The staff is very considerate, helpful and courteous. I have enjoyed my visits and feel very satisfied . My pain issue was addressed right away . Dr. Sundar is very knowledgeable and professional. I recommend this doctor for arthritis and bone pain . 😇I had neck pain for months . Dr.Sundar showed me the problem.. although it’s an issue that will need more work . My cortisone shot worked wonders . And I’m feeling better and enjoying life . 😇
I’ve seen Dr Sundar for about 15 years, it’s been one of my best decisions to go to him. He is very easy to understand, he’s kind and knowledgeable, he has a quiet demeanor, explains every question I have until I understand, he’s very organized and professional. He’s a confident man but not ‘stuffy’.
Called to make an appointment and got in the next day. Great doctor, and very personable.
Very fast and efficient. The Doctor had a wonderful bedside manner and was very attentive to listening and understanding my needs. Would highly recommend this facility and Doctor. Rare to find a doctor like that these days. Thank you
Dr Sundar is compassionate & knowledgeable to patients with pain.
Very professional and easy to talk to. Gifted in his field.
Very professional and kind. Right on time, I waited like 2 minutes.
Dr Sundar was very friendly and professional. He new just where the pain was and why. He has me on the mend. Thank you Doc.
Dr Sundar was very thoughtful, kind and listened to everything that was said. Answered all questions and explained things so I and my wife could understand. I would highly recommend Dr Sundar.
I have my 2nd surgery coming up with him. He is very nice,explains things in a way I can understand. He always in a good mood and really gets rid of any anxiety I may have. No one likes surgery, but im very thankful he is doing mine . Cant say enough good about him and the entire staff at ORA. very thankful ORA is there for me!
Very pleased with Dr. Sundar, his knowledge and professionalism was outstanding. Highly recommend him for pain relief.
Dr. Sundar is awesome. Had issue n doctored with others n got no where I have seen him 3 times n already is doing everything he can for me. He cares!!!!
Dr. Sundar is wonderful. He addresses your concern in a professional manner . I have never had appointments as timely as I have with Dr Sundar. I believe he is knowledgeable, caring and an advocate for my health and healing.
Awesome doctor, listens and gets the ball rolling on therapy or surgery.
Dr. Sundar was pleasant but got down to business. I got solutions immediately. I was in and out of ORA in 15 minutes!
Great doctor and location. Always make you feel like they care and have your best interest.
Only spent 5 minutes in the waiting room, was escorted to the exam room,by a nurse, answered a few basic questions about my problem and Dr Sundar came into the room. He was very professional and very cordial. Did not act hurried. Explained what he thought my problem was, gave me options of treatment, answered all my questions. We decided on a course of treatment and he explained what it involved and what were the risks. Very happy with treatment and the care he provided. Would highly recommend him !
Been having the back pain for a while went to go see him and he's going to try something on me this coming Tuesday hoping it will help some thank you
Been seeing Dr Sundar for many years.Always been a pleasure speaking with him.I liked him better with his beard!!
Very nice and friendly. Talked to you in words you understand and explained everything. Made me feel more at ease instead of on the edge. To me, he deserves the 5 stars I gave him.
Wonderful first impression consistent with referral by another professional. Purpose of appointment was to analyze significant pain in lower back. Dr Sundar was very clear in explanation as he reviewed the x-ray with us. We were impressed and look forward to subsequent office visits and hopefully restoration of comfort for her back. We fully trust his insight and guidance.
Staff are great everyone is friendly Dr Sundar amazing
Excellent Doctor. Straight forward and to the point. Listens to you and talks to you.
I came to Dr Sundar with a herniated disc and a pinched nerve and he was a very caring person to me and has done his best to make me comfortable and to help me
I was very pleased with my visit. I’ve only seen Dr Sundar twice but, he listened to all my concerns and is trying to come up with a care plan to the best of his ability that will make me feel better .
Very pleased with Dr. Sundar. He was prompt, courteous, explained everything in detail, answered all my questions clearly to my understanding, provided options for pain relief. Extremely satisfied with his care.

Dr. Sundar is the best,5 stars, and I will not go to any other Docter for the procedure
Super caring Doctor.
Dr Sundar explained everything in ways that we could understand. He was very personable and knowledgeable. I felt very comfortable that he knew what he was talking about and cared about me and the outcome of treatment. I would recommend him highly.
I go to Dr Sundar for pain management. I have such confidence in his treatment to be my caregiver. He is a wonderful Dr along with compassion and his professionalism. Highly recommend Dr Sundar if you are looking for a pain specialist.
The staff treats me very well!
Very pleased with Dr. Sundar’s expertise and efficiency. He and his staff made my epidural a positive experience!
I feel like it went really well he was very self efficient about explaining my MRI results and tell me what's next
I was seen right on my appointed time and felt like Dr. Sundar was very personable and answered my questions and addressed my health problem.
Dr. Sundar was clear and concise with my diagnosis, conveyed the pros and cons of my condition, and recommended what he felt was the best treatment to reduce and possibly eliminate an ongoing problem. Extremely happy with the service and insight that he provided. Highly recommend Dr. Sundar.
Dr.Sundar was very nice so was every person we came in contact with. He looked over my tests and had me do a few things and immediately diagnosed me. I was extremely happy with their service. After a long 5 months of pain. I finally have a plan that can hopefully relieve my pain. Would definitely refer him without a doubt.
I have been going to ORA for many years. Dr Congdon did my arm surgery, Dr Millea did my back surgery. I started having back issues again abd was seen by Dr Myles Luszczyk. Loved Dr Myles and he referred me to Dr Sundar for injections in my back. I had 2 injections and was good for almost 3 yrs. Made appt again with Dr Sundar for injection but was so disappointed to find out he only sees patients for injections in Moline, Ill. now and no longer does them in Bettendorf. So, now I'm back to finding a Dr that I can see in either Davenport or Clinton Ia for injection. I was not happy that the appt scheduler did not tell me of all the changes when I called. Thought I was going to appt for the injection, but it was only a consultation that lasted 5 min and cost me $60 Co pay only to find out information that should have been told to me when I called for an appt to get the injection in my back.
Professional, on time, and communicates in plain everyday language. Being in the healthcare field myself, I would recommend him to my family and friends. Chronic pain from a MVC in 1994, listened to my needs and knew me by old records. Very thorough and discussed plan of care with me. I liked that he is open about care without opioids, and alternative options. Office Staff is fabulous also.
I can’t believe how quick and easy it was. I didn’t wait more than 5 minutes both times I went.
They stay on time….no long waits in the waiting room nor the appt room!! Dr Sundar gets to the point and explains things in layman’s terms.
Dr Sundar is very caring & explains treatment.
5 stars for Dr. Sundar my diagnosis from the mri was not good but dr Sundar was polite and to the point of telling me i need surgery at the L-4 L-3 of lumbar spine. He gave me options of controlling my pain until surgery. I’m very happy with my consultation with Sanjay!😃
professional, friendly employees. clean facilities. xray right there!!
I like Dr Sundar , he’s a very nice and professional He lesson to you, and he’s taken away a lot of pain With a implant simulator and Epidurals. I give you a 10 and more thank you. Sandy bauswell
Highly recommend.
Dr Sundar was great,he explains every thing he’s doing. He has fantastic Dr and patent communication skills! I would most definitely recommend him to friends and family
Wonderful and caring doctor and staff! Couldn't ask for a better experience when getting a shot in the knee!
Straight up, honest Dr. Enjoyed his opinion like I was talking to a trusted friend. Very kind!
I walked into your Davenport clinic and within 15 minutes I met with Melanie Wilson, PA-C. We discussed my issues, she listened very carefully, and because of my current state of homelessness, she offered her office for me to sit in while on her lunch break she made phone calls and gave me several good resources. She gave me her lunch because I had no food. She not only treated my physical issues but she treated my mind & soul. Melanie I want you to know how much I appreciated you that day. I've shared this with many people. You are an angel who's not just at her job to collect a paycheck. I met with Dr Sundar today & got very good news. Again a compassionate Dr who told me straight up his honest opinion, which I appreciate & value. I am no longer homeless. Thank you again for that day & bitter sweet our paths probably won't cross again but I will never forget that day I sat in your office. Debra Reeves
I didn’t have to wait to the doctor, they r very friendly and professional and the procedure worked quickly
Everyone very nice prompt love dr sundar he takes the time to listen. Usually see Mary schwenn whom I also like very much
Dr. Sundar listened to me carefully, talked TO me (not my accompanier), answered my questions and concerns and gave me what sounds like the correct procedure to follow to find the cause of my stiffness and pain, We were finished in an efficient quarter of an hour.
After sustaining a traumatic injury to my hand, I was referred to Dr. Sundar for the nerve damage. I can not emphasize enough his professionalism, attention to detail and explanation and his sincere care for his patient. I can only rate Dr. Sundar with five stars but he deserves much more!!
I would definitely recommend ORA to friends and family. Dr. Sundar MD was extremely knowledgeable and made sure I had the knowledge I needed to make my decisions on how to proceed with my pain management. Thanks to all.
Dr. Sundar and staff were professional, personable and knowledgeable.
Dr. Sundar was very thorough explaining my condition and gave me all options. I left feeling he answered all questions. He acted like he cared about me and did not rush me. I would definitely recommend Dr. Sundar!!!
He explained all options to my husband who is having serious back pain. He is very personable and listens to all your concerns and questions.
Very concerned and wanted to make me feel bette immediately and then set up long range plan
Dr Sundar, listens and is genuinely concerned about what I'm saying. I don't know what my life would be without his care. If anyone is looking for an amazing pain Dr, he's the best! D Nimrick
I’m a father of four very active boys and my wife would say she’s in charge of five children who can’t resist dangerous activities. Speaking from experience, on behalf of my whole crew, I can’t speak highly enough of Dr. Sundar and Dr. Mann. They take the time to put you at ease and their care always exceeds expectations. I can’t speak for the entire staff at ORA yet because we have injured ourselves in enough particular ways, but I would highly recommend ORA if they attract the likes of Sundar and Mann.
They are very helpful. Very easy to work with.
I just had my initial consultation with Dr Sundar. I was a patient at Pain Centers of Iowa and what a difference. The ORA team is very professional and Dr Sundar listened to my concerns and we together decided on my treatment plan. If you are in need of an ortho Dr., I highly recommend the team at ORA.
Dr Sundar is a wonderful doctor. He is caring ,understanding, and very knowledgeable. You can tell that his patients come first. I recommend him everytime I come across someone who needs his expertise. I am so lucky to have found him. He was actually recommended and was referred by another doctor, whose mother sees Dr. Sundar. That is a glowing recommendation in my opinion. Thank GOD for Dr. Sundar.
Very pleased with my first appointment with Dr. Sundar. He was prompt, courteous, explained everything in detail, answered all my questions clearly to my understanding, provided options for pain relief, and per my request administered trigger point injections in his Davenport office. Extremely satisfied with his care.

Appointment was on time and Dr explained things well. Didn’t hurry me and listened to me
Dr. Sundar was absolutely amazing. He discussed what my options were and was even able to provide a treatment the same day.
Dr Sundar is very courteous with a good bed side manner. If it wasn't for him I would l would not be working. Thank you Dr Sundar and the team at ORA!
Good experience
Excellent doctors and staff. Very nice facilities with parking. The professional staff listens to my problems and prescribes accordingly.
This Dr LISTENS and truly cares. His technique for the injections he gives me in my back are as painless as can be expected. Class A Dr right here! Go see him, I think you’ll be happy you did.
Dr. Sundar listens to my concerns/issues carefully and has a wonderful “bedside” manor. He truly cares about pain and resolving it. He doesn’t hesitate to refer me if his means for relief are exhausted or no longer effective. I’ve been working with him for a year now and I would recommend him highly for pain management of the spine.
Dr. Sundar is fantastic. Can not say enough positive things about him and his staff. Professional, empathetic, respectful, understanding, and most importantly, I felt that my well-being was important to him and I wasn’t just part of the heard. Great job by all at ORA but high marks for Dr. Sundar and his nurse.
I found Dr Sundar very pleasant and knowledgeable, he put my mind at ease with all my medical issues, I would recommend him highly to my friends and family
Dr. Sundar has a great bedside manner. He was very informative and helpful in explaining my results and what solutions are available to me. He was efficient and thorough. I didnt have to wait either.
Dr. Sundar is a terrific Physician. Caring and attentive to your pain needs. Love this man.
Can’t say enough! Professional, thorough and a great team at his side! Was in very bad shape on arrival but 6 months later have seen some needed relief! Thank you Dr for listening to me. Thank you for your help. Highly recommended!!

Everyone very pleasant and seemed to be organized. No complaints.
Dr Sundar is the best giving an epidural shot... He saved my Christmas this year...:-) Thanks Dr!! 🎄🥰👍🏼
ORA Orthopedics is an amazing place, with amazing doctors. Dr. Sundar is a kind, caring, compassionate, smart doctor with wonderful bedside manner. Very through and made sure all my questions were answer! He helped me get to the bottom of the pain I was having in my leg. After an MRI and a steroid injection, I’m on way to being normal again! Without surgery! 🙂 I highly recommend seeing Dr. Sundar if you are experiencing any pain, and want to get to the bottom of what’s causing it! Thank you again Dr. Sundar!
It was obvious that Dr. Sundar had reviewed my chart & concerns prior to entering the room. He listened closely to me and quickly developed a plan with options to treat me.
