Welcome to Our Orthopedic Clinic in Bixby Knolls

Care Designed for Life in Long Beach

Our orthopedic clinic in Bixby Knolls offers a streamlined, patient-first experience with top specialists designed to help you get answers quickly—and a plan you can trust.

This clinic was founded with a focus on spine care by Dr. Amandeep Bhalla, a fellowship-trained spine surgeon known for precision, innovation, and motion-preserving techniques. As the practice expanded, we welcomed Dr. David Lee, a foot & ankle surgeon specializing in complex reconstruction and total ankle replacement, and Dr. Allyson Estess, an orthopedic sports medicine surgeon caring for shoulder, hip, and knee conditions.

Whether you’re experiencing spine pain, a foot or ankle problem, or an orthopedic/sports injury, our team provides clear evaluations, thoughtful guidance, and treatment plans tailored to your goals.

We care for patients across Long Beach, Bixby Knolls, Lakewood, Signal Hill, Naples, Belmont Shore, and surrounding neighborhoods.
