Dr. Kansara is amazing! Very quick to diagnose my problem and sent me to the hospital and did surgery the next day. I had been in pain for 2 months and not been able to walk. Having many E room visits and wrong diagnoses. At my appt. with Dr. Kansara nailed it! I could not be happier and pain free! He made everything perfect and is a very nice gentleman. "Superstar"

- Hand Surgery
I have been suffering severe pain in my hand from an injury for several years. I've visited several doctors and no one could help me. I finally found Dr. Sun. Dr. Sun evaluated my issues and with one surgery he totally eliminated my pain and suffering. I cannot recommend him enough!

- L Knee PT and Surgery
I have nothing but THANKS for ALL involved - from my physical therapists, staff, receptionists, nurses etc to my surgeon Dr Mohler. Everyone who I met at California Orthopaedic Institute was always professional, courteous and genuinely made you feel like they cared about you. From my experience, I could not be more satisfied with how I was treated from beginning to end. Now, I am happily back at work - thanks to all of your dedication to your work and your patients.

- Physical Therapy
I provided a testimony about Dr. Kansara, but I had to add one for the PT team! Kristy & Shane worked so hard to help break up my frozen shoulder and help me achieve a range of motion that I wasn't sure I'd achieve when I first started therapy. They were always so encouraging and supportive of the process and time it takes a patient to heal. I recovered much faster than I thought I would. Kuddos also to their remarkable team from the gals at the front desk to the assistants on the floor. Everyday I came to therapy I felt welcomed and cared for! Each team member knew their jobs well and that made therapy seamless. I cannot recommend this team more! If you are in need of Physical Therapy, definitely consider California Orthopedic Institute. You won't be disappointed!

- Hip replacement
Dr. Jeff Schultz replaced my right hip in January. Within three weeks, I was totally mobile, could resume my walks and workouts. I had a hip replacement by a different orthopedic 2 years ago---had complications. My experience with Dr. Schultz was just the opposite. No complications at all. Quick recovery to better condition that I have been in many years!

- Progressive recovery from closed fracture of the medial portion of the right tibial plateau
How fortunate we are here in San Diego to have the opportunity to consult with a multifaceted, world renowned Orthopaedic Surgeon who specializes on sports medicine as well as in other more general cases. After having had imaging tests, CT and X-rays, Dr. Kansara determined that my diagnosis, closed fracture of the medial portion of the right tibial plateau did not justify surgery, provided I continue to follow his advice strictly. Expert in his field, Dr. Kansara is also a kind, gentle and patient human being who took time to listen actively to my concerns. He offers his advice firmly, communicates clearly while systematically pointing to the X-rays for me to visualize the extent of the injury and how to allow the healing process to take place successfully over a given period of time. Dr. Kansara exudes a great deal of positive energy which is quite contagious.

- Rotator Cuff Surgery
Dr. Kansara is such an amazing Dr! I was so impressed when I first met him. He gave me quality time. He is not the type of Dr. to rush you in and out. He genuinely wants to put you at ease and have you well informed about your condition and the procedure. On my surgery day he made me feel I was in good hands. His follow up has been encouraging and empowering. I am so grateful I found him and would recommend him to anyone that asks my opinion!

- Right hand, middle finger
From the first visit to my post-op appointment I was very happy and impressed with the customer service I received through out, especially Dr Mohler and his staff at the pre-op and post-op appointments. They were awesome! Dr Mohler did an amazing job with the surgery as well as putting me at ease by answering my questions in a way I could understand. Thank you so much!

- expert dialogue
I was impressed with Dr. Kansara's friendly, professional and insightful evaluation of issues I was having with my hip and elbow. Reflecting a true acceptance of my independence in controlling my treatment options he was able to converse with me as an equal and yet impart his wisdom and expertise to my conditions.

- Knee surgery for meniscus clean-up
I've seen Dr. Kansara for issues with my knees and shoulders. He is extremely knowledgeable, easy to talk to and has the bedside manner you want all your doctors to have. I asked a lot of questions, and he took the time to answer every one. I ended up having surgery to clean up a torn meniscus. The whole team was awesome, fun to chat with and totally professional. The clean-up worked great and as a 65-year-old professional skydiver, I have zero pain in that knee now. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Kansara and his team - they are fantastic. He's the ortho you want taking care of you.
