Patient Reviews
Aug 24, 2024
May 5th of 2024 I had knee replacement. Dr Karas and his whole team took care of all of my needs and fears of surgery. I never used a cane or walker after surgery. Anytime I called with questions they were answered almost immediately. Dr Karas took as much time as I needed to answer my questions and explain things to me. His PA is wonderful. Once I had to wait a while at my appointment but I understand that some people require more time then others and frankly he is worth waiting for because you know he will take whatever time you need also. If I need my right knee done I will go to Dr Karas. I highly recommend him. I am 3 months post surgery and my knee is in perfect working order. I think therapy is a must after surgery. Thank you Dr Karas and your whole staff for. Before surgery, your recovery nurses and post care. A beautiful experience!
