Serge C Kaska's Online Review Report Card

Broken hip skateboarding and was taken to scrips Encinitas. Dr Kaska slotted me in for surgery and within hours had skillfully set broken hip with titanium plate and skewers. Grateful for his care and excellence. Feeling stronger everyday. Thank God for orthos

My son and I have never been so intimidated, threatened, yelled at and been so afraid of a human being in the medical field as we are of Dr. Kaska. My son is fighting for his life right now, stuck in the hospital where Dr. Kaska's "Dictatorship" exists. We told him we wanted a second opinion from my son's team located at a different hospital. These other doctor's are experts in my son's primary diagnosis. Dr. Kaska is not. This doctor has never bothered to meet me face to face. He has not communicated with my son or myself before and after his surgeries. When we told him about wanting a second opinion from my son's orthopedic surgeon, before he signed up a stranger to surgically perform a colon waste bag to hang outside of my son's body (not Dr. Kaska's area of "knowledge," ) he proceeded to yell at us while our wonderful nurse held her cell phone and my son held his cell phone next to one another, on speaker. I informed Dr. Kaska, I was at the hospital in the parking lot ready to go up to my son's room, that we should all speak together, face to face, after he has calmed down and was able to stop his verbal abuse. I was ignored, then he kept cutting in and out failing to communicate clearly and rationally anything but threats to go over our heads and "force" my son to be in a hospital we have never been in before instead of going to my son's expert team at a different, more appropriate hospital. My son and I are afraid of him and how does a man like this (irrational, yelling and scaring) get away with hold us hostage in a hospital my son does not want to be in? He has done it by saying he will force the hospital to "see his way" and go over our heads as a family, to take away my son's right to choose his treatment whenmy son said he wanted to get a second opinion. This is a nightmare going on right now. We fear retribution for writing the truth.

Dr. Kaska shows up as thoughtful, super knowledgeable, thorough, explains the diagnosis and follows up .Really trust him and get a kick out of his dry sense of humor. His staff is friendly and efficient, so overall a 5 star team. I've seen him for a broken foot and recently for torn knee ligaments after a cycling accident. Would absolutely recommend him.

Dr. Kaska is one of the smartest men I have ever known. He's also compassionate and a man of integrity. He's worked on my dislocated shoulder and my knee. In each of these he did an excellent job and took very good care of the problem with a personal touch that made me laugh in spite of the discomfort of the injury. His office is bright and clean and his staff are wonderful people. I highly recommend him as an Orthopedic Surgeon and as an honest and professional man.

Dr. Kaska is a great surgeon and takes wonderful care of his patients. We are highly recommend him.

My wife was involved in an accident which resulted in her leg being badly broken, not too dissimilar to the unfortunate injury suffered by Tiger Woods. Since Covid was in full force, I couldn't even go into the hospital let alone help select a surgeon. My wife and I feel very fortunate that Dr. Kaska was assigned to perform the trauma surgery. By all indications he did an exceptional job and she is recovering very well. My wife felt comfortable from their first meeting and Dr. Kaska was exceptional during all of our subsequent visits. In addition, Dr. Kaska's staff was excellent in providing clear instructions and also helped out a lot with the insurance provider. I hope you don't need his help, but if you do we highly recommend Dr. Kaska.
