Excellent doctor. He has performed a successful knee replacement surgery on me in 2022 which has given me increased mobility and pain relief. I am planning a hip replacement next spring and will definitely want Dr Karegeannes to do it. I have full confidence in his skill.

Courteous staff, on time appointment. Dr Karegeannes quickly diagnosed and treated the problem. I hope to not need any further treatment but will certainly return to this office if needed. Thanks to the entire team.

Dr K performed a surgery on my femur which was highly successful. His follow-up was thorough, thoughtful, and very informative. I have nothing but good things to say about him and the practice in general.

I talked to several people and Dr. Karegeannes’ name kept coming up very positively. It took a few weeks to get an appointment but worth it because he took the time to explain every aspect of treatment in a clear manner and did not make me feel rushed. Every question was answered.
