Desh Sahni, MD, at Capital Brain & Spine is one of only a handful of Texas surgeons trained in both neurosurgery and spine surgery. He is also one of the few spine surgeons in Central Texas who specializes in minimally invasive spine surgery. Much of his work is done through incisions that are often one inch or less. Almost all his surgeries are done through a microscope with limited bleeding and tissue damage.
Most importantly, he is a highly skilled surgeon who aspires for perfection in patient outcomes. Dr. Sahni employs a scholarly, science-based approach to neurospine surgery and provides humane and compassionate patient-centric care.
Open-minded and non-judgmental, Dr. Sahni and his staff welcome all patients with warmth.
Brief Biosketch
Dr. Sahni was raised in New York and received his undergraduate degree in English literature from Columbia University and his Medical Degree from Columbia’s College of Physicians & Surgeons in Manhattan, NYC. He relocated to Texas to undergo neurosurgical training at the Baylor College of Medicine/MD Anderson in Houston. He then completed a fellowship in complex and minimally invasive spine surgery at the Texas Medical Center Spine Fellowship program where he trained at Houston Methodist Hospital, MD Anderson, and Texas Children’s Hospital. He is certified by the American Board of Clinical Neurosurgery.
Dr. Sahni has extensive experience and training in neurotrauma: both brain and spine. He is highly regarded as one of the most experienced and capable neurotrauma surgeons in central Texas. He had the privilege and honor of serving as the neurotrauma coordinator for the busiest ER in Central Texas: St. David’s South Austin Hospital, a level 2 trauma center, for 4 years and was trusted as the primary on-call neurosurgeon for their trauma center for more than 5 years. During this extremely demanding period of service to the people of Austin - where he was required to respond to emergencies in 30 minutes 24 hours a day, sometimes weeks at a time - Dr. Sahni saved the lives of and prevented paralysis in dozens of patients while relieving pain and disability in hundreds more.
Dr. Sahni believes in treating patients as he would himself and thinks compassion is a good guiding principle in one’s moral compass. He advocates for nontraditional, nonsurgical therapies for spinal health, including chiropractic care, yoga, meditation, Tai-chi, acupuncture, and strength training.
Dr. Sahni is married with three children and a 4 lb chihuahua. He is a beginner pianist who practices daily meditation, intermittent fasting, high-intensity interval training, and light resistance training.

Reviews
He was great ! Very easy to talk to him . Answered all my questions and concerns. Knew exactly what I needed to do in my situation .
He is helping me with my case and he knew what was wrong when i had my app . I have a shunt i been telling my other neuro about the pains and faints spells . So dr sahni will fix his job. Awsome staff
The guy wasn’t clear about what he was saying and made several unclear remarks about my condition. Since they seemed to trail off towards the end, I could not make out what he was saying (nothing to do with accents or him being a sikh). He came off with an overall snarky and sarcastic vibe, and didn’t much care for what I had to say, as though I was wasting his time. I don’t have time for his self-important bullshit either, so it’s all good. I’ll private pay to go back to Dr. Khabbazeh
Very respectful doctor and very informative. Very good Doctor.

The best treatment ever
The service it was great.
In my opinion this doctor is very rude all because I asked him questions and he didn't have the answers it's not my fault he is unprepared for my appointment and just over an hour late. He tries to be very intimidating by his opionated mouth and even raised his voice at me because because he wanted a yes or no answer right then and there for neck surgery. The more I tried to explain to him why I couldn't give him an answer the madder he got. One word to describe this doctor would be "ASSHOLE"
Very professional and all the staff is very nice and friendly
Professional job
Very polite and informative sincere when speaking and very straight to the point
Excellente and very fast service
If you want to be treated like shit this is the doctor to see. 1 he finally shows up an hour late 2 they leave me in a waiting room for approximately 45 minutes because the doctor is unprepared 3the nurse shows up and tells me the doctor is having problems getting into my port, when he finally walks into the room he can't answer any of my questions and he is so full of attitude and rudeness This doctor is a total asshole

Very personable and friendly and definitely very educated!! Highly recommended!
Surgery on Thursday Nov 13 in San Antonio and I live in corpus Christi, come home from a 2 and half hour trip and have absolutely no medication and the doctors office can't even get it together for delivery to my house. Now I have absolutely nothing for pain or infection after back surgery.
Dr Sahni is genuine, compassionate and his staff is absolutely amazing. I am so thankful I am under his care.
Dr. Sahni is the most knowledgeable physician I've ever encountered. I'm never left in question after a conversation with him. I wholly trust his recommendations and respect his care for my opionion as well. I highly recommend him to the masses.
