Patient Reviews
Nov 27, 2023
Dr. Karas spent nearly 2 hours with me prior to surgery. Answering the multitude of questions I had and explaining every portion of the surgery he was proposing. On the day of the surgery, he met with me for about 10 minutes. I was the first of his procedures that day, so one of the surgeons that assisted did the follow up post procedure.
