I'm so grateful to my Dr. Kakarla! Thank you for giving me the opportunity, through your surgery, to maintain mobility in my head without it having to fuse with my neck and become immobile due to the RA injury I was diagnosed with. 🙏🏼

Such a wonderful Doctor!. He is pleasant, friendly and genuinely cares about your needs. He takes great pride in his work and ability, as he should. I say with complete confidence he is one of the best physicians I have ever known. He has performed two surgeries on me over a 12 year period. Both times he gave me back my quality of life.
