Dr Karas and his team are outstanding. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this doctor and surgeon. Truly unsurpassed in every way—patient, caring, compassionate, and attentive. He takes the time to listen to every concern and makes you feel heard and comfortable throughout the entire process.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Karas and the entire team at Midwest Orthopaedic. From the moment I walked in, I felt genuinely cared for, supported, and treated with kindness.
Dr. Karas is incredibly compassionate, attentive, and knowledgeable, and he truly takes the time to listen and make you feel comfortable. His lovely staff is equally wonderful. A special thank you to Maddison and Alexis, who went above and beyond to make me feel supported and cared for throughout my experience. Their warmth, patience, and kindness made such a meaningful difference.
It is rare to come across a medical team where everyone is not only professional and excellent at what they do, but also genuinely kind and compassionate. I am so grateful for the care I received and feel incredibly lucky to have been in such wonderful hands.
Thank you to Dr. Karas, Maddison, Alexis, and the entire Midwest Orthopaedic team for making what could have been a stressful experience feel so much easier. You are all truly wonderful! ❤️*

Dr. Karas was so caring when my hip dislocated last year. He got me in for surgery two days later and figured out that scar tissue was causing the problem. A year later, my hip feels good again.*

Dr. Karas is an excellent surgeon and his entire team is pleasant and helpful. I had my hip replaced three years ago. I am having my knee replaced in two months. It was absolutely the best experience I have ever had with a medical team He uses the latest technology and mitigates bleeding as much as possible.*

As always everyone was friendly, professional and everything on time. I forgot to thank Dr. Karas but I will now. Thank you for the great surgeries that are now over a year ago. Everything turned out perfect just like you told me during the initial consultation. I can’t believe how great my hips and back feel. Working out and hiking, thanks to you and your entire staff!*

After seeing several doctors for hip pain, I was referred to Dr. Kara’s. He listened carefully to my somewhat unusual history and made a diagnosis more nuanced than the previous ones. This allowed me to leave the office pain free, and provided a plan and time to determine when a hip replacement will be necessary.*

What a wonderful gentleman. He is personable, a great listener, knowledgeable, and seems to be the doctor I would want. Unfortunately, he is so well known and loved by his patients that I can’t get a scheduled surgery until February. At times I can’t do activities because of the pain in my knee and I want to have surgery sooner. I’m very sad but things don’t always work out perfectly. My best wishes to Dr Karas and his team.
