Dr. Dilip Ramanath Kelekar, MD

I was on hold for 20 min. It kept telling me I was 3rd in line and when it finally rang, it sent me straight to VM. HORRIBLE!!!!

Dr. Kelekar has done over 5 orthopedic surgeries on me. He takes time to talk to me and he also listens to my concerns. I never feel rushed when I am in his office. The out come of these surgeries have been very positive and I would and have recommended him to anybody I know that is looking for a fantastic qualified, and caring doctor. I have been to others and I felt like I had 10 minutes to talk and my concerns were not answered. I think people in need of any orthopedic situations would find him a very very profestional doctor. His assistant Kim is very friendly and makes me laugh even when I am in pain and worried.

I am due for a knee replacement soon. Dr. Kelekar is a very good surgeon and I put my trust in him because he has done other orthopedic surgeries for me. He is very knowledgeable, caring, professional doctor. His staff is nice, and friendly. Cindy is a super woman with a lot of front office experience. I like Kim too because she is always so jovial.

The best orthopedic surgeon in Victorville/Apple Valley. He is knowledgable and caring doctor. I've had 2 knee arthroscopy and have not had a proble. Eventually I will need replacements and I know he will do a good job. He replaced my shoulder after an accident and he really is a top surgeon in my book. Thank you, Dr. Kelekar!

I have known Dr. Kelekar for many, many years, ever since he was first in Michigan City, IN as a new doctor. I worked on the orthopedic floor on the evening shift for many years, so it was a pleasure to have met him and worked with him all the 7 years he was on our staff. He was always very pleasant to work with, had an excellent bedside manner and was an overall nice person. If I need surgery for my torn medial meniscus and lived in the area of his present practice, I would be the first in line to have him fix my knee up! Also, his patients always recovered beautifully from their surgeries, AND, never had one person develop a wound infection! His surgical incisions were impeccable as well! Keep up the good work, Dr. Kelekar!

Dr. Kelekar is an excellent doctor, caring and many years of experience. I would recommend him to anyone that needs surgery in this field.

We started with Dr. Kelekar about 15 years ago when our handicapped son broke his collarbone at camp. Since then - we have been to him for various orthopedic problems for our son (now deceased), my husband, and myself. We think he is GREAT! Yes - we are used to waiting to see him, but that means that he is giving another patient the same time and attention that we will get when we get into the exam room....Cindy - the first person you see or usually talk to - is all business, but also kind and caring. And she has been with him longer than we have! His staff doesn't change week-to-week, which can't be said about many of the other doctors here......Dr. Kelekar has always been there for us when we needed him, and I can't praise him enough! Good doctors are hard to come by here in the High Desert - and when you find a GREAT one - you stick with them!

I had knee surgery, which was fine and wrist surgery, which was delayed for several months by the Drs' personal medical problems. Instead of handing me off to another surgeon I was delayed for months from having surgery and now have been told that there is nothing that can be done for the scar tissue buildup in the joint.The doctor is also very good at ignoring patient complaints and not making referals to other specialties on his Workers Comp. clients.I am being treated by another Orthopedic surgeon for multiple untreated/undertreated problems that have left me unable to return to my regular work.
