I recently managed to tear my meniscus after tearing an ACL much earlier, for which I underwent physiotherapy 8 or so years ago. I was initially seen by a colleague of Kash, who had arranged for initial diagnosis and MRI done. After assessing my injury and MRI images, I was recommended to see Kash to get his surgical opinion. Kash has, from the outset, been a very good listener and at the first session went through all potential options ranging from doing nothing, repairing / cutting the meniscus only or attending to both the meniscus and ACL. I was naturally very apprehensive about having a surgery, but found Kash very honest and reassuring. He made it clear it is my choice only, and recommended either meniscus only or mensicus and ACL done at the same time. In the end, I decided to get the meniscus injury resolved in the first place and would think about addressing the ACL later. After deciding for the surgery, Kash has informed me of the whole process ahead, what exactly will be done and the time it would take to recuperate. I had loads of questions throughout and Kash had always intently listened and answered all my questions in full. He had also made clear all the potential risks, including that in most cases, my sort of injury could not be repaired. On the day of surgery, Kash had attended before the operation and once again explained what he will exactly perform. This was followed by more nurse visits. After surgery, Kash had been among the first ones to visit, explaining, he was in fact able to repair the injury for which I am very grateful. I continued meeting Kash after surgery to track progress recovering and now, 3 months after the surgery, my knee is back to its former self. All in all, I have only positive things to share about Kash. The whole process, from seeing Kash for the first time, going through all the possible options to repair the injury, through to surgery and post-surgery recovery, has been positive. I would not hesitate to recommend Kash to anybody in need of fixing a problem with the knee. As I said to Kash before, I regad him as a sort of a magician - he has managed to fix my knee to the extent I don't believe anybody else would. And for that, i am very grateful.
