I recently underwent an ACL surgery with Dr. Shashikanth and I am very pleased with the results. He made me feel very comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. I highly recommend him for anyone considering an ACL surgery.
From the initial consultation, when I understood from him that I had a partial MCL tear and a full ACL tear, to the post-operative follow-ups, Dr. Shashikanth provided exceptional care and attention to detail. He thoroughly explained the extent of injury, the procedure, the risks and benefits, and the recovery process, ensuring that I fully understood what to expect.
Prior to the surgery, he suggested me to undergo physiotherapy for a month for the partial tear to naturally heal and to achieve full (or, near to full) range of motion. Even during this period of 1 month of physiotherapy, Dr. Shashikanth would do regular follow ups to check my progress and accordingly plan for surgery.
The surgery itself was seamless, and I experienced minimal pain and discomfort. Dr. Shashikanth and his team made sure that I was comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process.
The recovery process has been smooth and successful, thanks to the excellent care and guidance of Dr. Shashikanth. He provided me with a comprehensive rehabilitation plan, and closely monitored my progress to ensure that I was on track.
It has been close to 6 months now post surgery - I have achieved full range of motion with no signs of impact of injury in regular life and day-to-day activities. I am continuing with my strength training to soon resume playing sports.
Thank you for all this and also motivating me to continue putting in the efforts for full recovery.
