Patient testimonials
Joint Replacement
He is one of the most polite, professional, and skilled surgeons we’ve met. His patient-first approach, clear explanations at every stage, and practical guidance made my mother’s recovery smooth, pain-free, and with excellent results. Honest, reassuring, and truly patient-centric, he makes no false promises. I sincerely thank him and his team and recommend him wholeheartedly.
Arthroscopy: ACL Surgery Testimonial
The doctor clearly explained my ACL tear, treatment options, and involved me in choosing the best graft and fixation for my lifestyle, including dancing and running. Surgery, recovery, and physiotherapy went smoothly, and his guidance on dos and don’ts helped me return to work early. My knee feels stable, and I found the doctor and his team professional and courteous. I felt completely in safe hands and am very grateful for his patience and care.
Trauma 1: Fracture Surgery Testimonial
I had a bike accident 4 months ago, fracturing my hand and leg. Dr. Karan Kukreja performed the surgeries, placing plates in both areas. Throughout multiple follow-ups for checkups and dressings, he patiently explained my questions, care instructions, and healing progress. He is polite, straightforward, and highly skilled. Thanks to his expertise and exceptional care, I am now walking and doing well. I highly recommend Dr. Kukreja for his dedication and outstanding medical skill.
Trauma 2: Orthopedic Surgery Testimonial
Two years ago, my father-in-law suffered fractures in both legs and had surgery elsewhere. A year later, his left tibia didn’t heal properly, and the screw had broken. We consulted Dr. Karan Kukreja, who thoroughly examined him, reviewed previous records, and explained the problem and treatment options. He performed a successful exchange nailing surgery, guided us through recovery, and monitored progress. My father-in-law can now walk freely. The entire process was smooth, and Dr. Karan is approachable, professional, and highly recommended.
