List of Chandan Krishna's Reviews
After two prior surgeries, I knew a third (and much more involved) surgery was inevitable. I got two opinions confirming the need for a spinal fusion, but wanted to see if I could get an appointment for a definitive opinion at Mayo. It only took a couple weeks for the appointment, which was a bit of a surprise. In any event, Dr. Krishna came in having reviewed my records and imaging, and confirmed that a fusion would be needed in order to get rid of my leg pain. After I explained the prior two opinions, he indicated that I would be unhappy with that approach (ALIF) and that his recommendation is from the back (TLIF). He took the time to explain exactly why, and reassured me that his pay is the same whether or not he operates (which limits the possibility a recommendation will be to pad the surgeon's wallet). The last bit convinced me. Everything has progressed exactly as he said it would (miserable the first month, slow improvement, then steady improvement.) He was also spot on that I am essentially pain free, but occasionally there are reminders I've had surgery. The leg pain that I went in with was gone the moment I awoke from surgery. TL;DR- Excellent surgery, excellent outcome for an often unreliable procedure. Dr. Krishna is supremely confident without arrogance. If you need spine surgery, try to get an appointment with him.
Dr. Krishna is an excellent spine surgeon. He was my third opinion concerning a fusion and he walked through why the other two opinions were wrong about which approach to use. He made a good case, and I chose him for surgery. It progressed exactly as he said it would, and while the recovery was long, it was 100% worth it. He is also confident and personable, coming close to but not crossing into the arrogant surgeon category.
Dr. K Is the best!! I had a BAD back surgery by another surgeon in mid July and had been in HORRIBLE pain
I lucked out when I was admitted to Mayo with horrible pain. I was handed over to the Neuro Department and met Dr. Krishna who would be performing my microdiskectomy. I can’t say enough good things about him. He went over my MRI with me and explained exactly what needed to be done, and why, and what would happen if I didn’t have the surgery. He was kind and pleasant and my surgery went well with no complications. I would definitely recommend him to my friends and family members.
I had a meningioma pushing on my brain stem. Dr Krishna was straight forward but explained he was confident that it could be removed. I thank him and Dr Bendok for removing it and my recovery has been good. Thank you!

Selection Criteria
All the information you see here is based on our analysis of internet reviews across the seven major review platforms most used by consumers during their healthcare provider selection. The platforms we selected are Google, WebMD, Yelp, HealthGrades, Facebook, RateMDs, and Vitals. The analysis algorithm uses the compiled data of average score, recency of reviews, number of reviews, and the sentiment expressed in the written comments. It then assigns weight to each parameter based on the available research on how consumers use reviews in their doctor selection process. This report is designed to help identify the doctors with the best overall review score in an area and does not reflect the doctors' competence.
