I am one of those people who has never had any major medical problems and have never been ill in hospital so when my knee started to hurt continuously (having ignored it over 5 years of on-and-off pain) I was apprehensive about seeing an orthopaedic surgeon and feared the worst. Kash immediately put me at ease with his positive energy, attentiveness, sharp perceptiveness to a patient's thoughts, and effective communication. After a thorough investigation and patient history, he came up with his hypothesis as to what could be the problem - Fat Pad Impingement and Iliotibial Band Friction Syndrome. On the same day an MRI was carried out on my knee to establish what the problem was. Two days later over a zoom call, Kash walked me through the MRI results that confirmed his hypothesis. With the aid of technology, he took the time to explain, with pictures and a marker, exactly where the problem was inside my knee cap, and how physiotherapy treatment would help with the pain. Not only is he knowledgeable in his field, he engenders trust and is very adaptable to clients' needs. Thank you Kash!
