Thank you for your kind feedback. I’m pleased to hear the explanations were clear and that you felt comfortable and well supported throughout your visit.
I recently had an appointment with Dr. Ajai Seth, and I can't recommend him highly enough! From the moment I walked in, he took the time to listen to everything I had to say, which made me feel truly valued as a patient. Having had previously negative experiences with surgical doctors, I was pleasantly surprised by Dr. Seth’s holistic approach. He not only focused on my knee issues but also inquired about my diet, nutrition, lifestyle, and exercise training. This comprehensive assessment helped me feel more at ease and confident in my treatment plan. I was particularly concerned about a course of knee injections I needed, but Dr. Seth ensured the procedure was completely pain-free. His reassuring demeanor put me at ease, and I appreciated that he followed up to check how I was doing afterward. Additionally, the administrative team at the clinic were kind, professional, and exceptionally helpful, making the entire experience smooth from start to finish. Overall, I give Dr. Ajai Seth a full 5/5 stars for his expert opinion, advice, and treatments. He will be my go-to sports doctor whenever I have an injury. Thank you, Dr. Seth!
