About Dr. Baljinder Bathla

Dr. Bathla is one of the co-founders of Chicago Sports and Spine. He is Dual Board Certified in both Pain Medicine and Rehabilitation Medicine. After serving as an Attending Physician at the prestigious University of Chicago, Dr. Bathla decided to start his own practice with an emphasis on treating the patient as a whole rather than the symptoms they suffer from. He believes in a "Holistic" approach to achieve pain relief by treating multiple systems in the body and the impact they have on each other. He believes that it is through the dysfunction of these multiple systems that you experience pain. He has had tremendous success with this approach. Born and raised in Dayton, Ohio; Dr. Bathla received his Medical Degree from The Wright State University. He then went on to do his Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation residency training at the University of Chicago and continued his training with a Fellowship in Pain Management at the University of Chicago Department of Anesthesia. Dr. Bathla has a strong interest in both medical relief and social causes. He and his wife head an organization that provides relief to places in the world in need of medical help. He currently serves as Vice-President of Awassa Children’s Project which runs an orphanage in Ethiopia with 100 Children orphaned by HIV/AIDS.
