Dr. Mahesh Karthik

Our 8-year-old daughter was born with congenital radial clubhand that limited her daily activities. Dr. Karthik's innovative V osteotomy procedure and postoperative therapy have given her functional use of her hand for the first time. She can now write, draw, and even play the piano.

After a horrific motorcycle accident that shattered my pelvis in multiple places, multiple surgeons told me I might never walk normally again. Dr. Karthik's 12-hour reconstructive surgery and personalized rehabilitation plan proved them wrong. I completed my first 5K run exactly one year post-surgery.

My 45-year-old husband, a professional cricketer, tore his rotator cuff during a match. Dr. Karthik's arthroscopic repair and sports-specific recovery program had him back bowling at professional level within 6 months, something we thought would take over a year.

As parents of a teenage gymnast with chronic stress fractures in her lumbar spine, we were desperate for solutions. Dr. Karthik's combination of vertebral augmentation and a revolutionary bone-healing protocol allowed her to return to competition with stronger bones than ever before.

As a 72-year-old retired classical dancer with severe osteoarthritis in both hips, I had given up hope of ever moving gracefully again. Dr. Mahesh Karthik performed bilateral hip replacement using a minimally invasive anterior approach. Six months later, I'm not just walking pain-free but have resumed teaching Bharatanatyam to young students.
