Very easy checkin, very busy but still kept everything flowing. With in one hour I was X-ray seen by an assistant and then by my Doctor. Doctor gave me options for my treatment so will consider all options. *

Dr.Karas - a very busy surgeon because of his skill - is amazing. He is confident with a gentle manner, skilled & conscientious!! He is supported by an amazing team - I work in healthcare & it is obvious when employees are taken care of they give to their patients a level of service and care that is second to none! He has done surgery on me, my mother in law and my mother - i highly recommend Dr Karas- they are extremely organized & their preop training of patients/family’s & medication regimen plus PT sets you up for a successful surgery & recovery! God bless the Karas team - may the continue their work to heal people! ❤️*

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Karas for 2 years. I am being treated for bilateral osteoarthritis & both of my knees are bone on bone. Steroid injections have been helpful until recently, and I finally decided to discuss having knee replacement surgery. Even though my knees were bad enough to proceed with surgery in 2022, Dr. Karas always told me that I would know when the time was right to proceed. He & his PA, McKenzie, went above & beyond answering all of my many questions. They are both very thorough, knowledgeable, reassuring, & caring…spending more time with me than I expected. I believe Dr. Karas genuinely cares about his patients, & puts their needs/treatment first. He is not your typical surgeon. Not once in the past 2 years did he ever make me feel that surgery was imminent or that I needed to make a surgical decision sooner than later. Would definitely highly recommend Dr. Karas & his team.*

I found Dr. Karas to be a doctor who listens to patients’ concerns. When my orthopedic doctor said my fourth left hip replacement was too complicated, I was sent to Rush and Dr. Karas. He was able to perform a surgery such that I may be able to walk again.*

I went in to see Dr Karas today in hopes that he would tell me that despite the complex nature of my knee, that there is a way forward. He did exactly that; said I needed complex reconstruction surgery on my knee and that a new doctor coming to the Rush practice from the Mayo Clinic was the surgeon l need to perform my procedure. Already was set up with appt for see Dr Terhune for a consult. I felt cared for which is all I ask from my doctors. Thanks *
