Explanation

I came to Mr Dabis seeking opinions and help on my knee, over five months since injuries occurred particularly with a broken ACL where I needed a surgery to fix it. Mr Dabis was very confident and experienced. He clearly explained my situation and laid out next steps plan after examination. His smile and positive attitude in first time consultation immediately put me at ease and gave me great comfort and a very good impression. Mr Dabis is also very patient, be ready to answer any of my questions no rushing, give advise and clear off my worries every time I see him. Mr Dabis did ACL reconstruction for me in mid Sep very successfully. Now I am on good recovery path with good PT they suggested me. I feel really lucky to find Mr Dabis as my surgeon. His PM Mina and secretary are also very helpful, a super efficient team to arrange appointments, understand my circumstances, listen to my needs and work together closely for the patients. Really appreciated from the bottom of my heart. I would highly recommend Mr Dabis, big thumb up.👍
