One of the best doctors I have ever met, 🙌🏼She is definitely called to be a Doctor. Very patient and very knowledgeable. She explains everything clearly and does not rush into making decisions. I love her and I highly recommend her. ❤️🙌🏼

A doctor with a high calling. Blessed to have had her head the team who did an elbow release for my son 1½ years ago. I would not have had any other surgeon perform the procedure. Thank you Doctor Cynthia for the role you played in Jeremy's journey xxx

What an absolutely PHENOMENAL doctor! Firstly she has incredible bedside manner - she is super friendly and kind, as well as patient and reassuring. Secondly - she is one of the most knowledgeable doctors I have ever met. She is so passionate about her field and her attention to detail is second to none. I am absolutely blown away after my visit with Dr Sathekga and definitely recommend her to anyone with hand/wrist problems!
