How do I even express what a positive experience this knee replacement has been for me? I was mildly terrified to have it done but Dr. Karas and his entire team allayed all my fears and my recovery and the outcome of my surgery has been amazing. Everyone on this team was fantastic! They explained everything, answered all of my millions of questions, and always made me feel comfortable. I felt that I had all the support that I needed after surgery and felt well prepared for what to expect. The encouraging/informative texts were appreciated. All the staff (registration folks, techs, nurses. APNs, PAs, physicians) at both the Oak Park office and at Rush Chicago were phenomenal! And Dr. Karas-what an amazing physician! He is obviously a very skilled surgeon but he is also such a personable and caring person. He always took time to chat and answer all my questions. I am so thankful that he is the one I chose to do my surgery. I have already referred many people to this amazing practice and will continue to do so!*

Excellent, prompt, professional care by Dr. Karas and his entire team. I am extremely pleased at 3 weeks. The text messages are very helpful through out the entire process to know exactly where I should be and what to do at the time. Thank you. *

Only one week after surgery and so far everything is better than I expected. My pain is quite tolerable and I am able to move about without aid of walker or cane although I do not go unaided for safety sake. His team is very good at preparing me for what to expect and what l should and shouldn’t do. I am very pleased so far! *

Never have I had such great follow through and support from a doctor and his crew. Everyone is so positive and encouraging. The daily notes with updates on what to do and where I should be in my recovery helped to keep me on the right track. *

Dr. Karas and his staff have provide excellent Medical and personal service since day one of my double partial knee replacements. His practice is run like a Swiss watch with all of the needed services for my surgery and recovery. At our final visit last Monday i thanked him and his staff for giving me my life back. Special shout out to Sarah for all of the time and answers to my questions.*

Very disappointed with my first visit. Dr provided no insight into my issue, but said I did not meet the ratio of height/weight to
have knee surgery. He did not mention how much weight I would have to lose to qualify. He did not seem interested in helping me at all.*

Saw Dr. Karas for the first time yesterday. He was very thorough in explaining everything about my future hip reconstruction surgery. Explained all the complications and possible outcomes of this surgery. Was grateful for his being upfront about everything. *
