Default Re: Total Knee Replacement - Dr. Recommendations?

Hancle,

Thanks for sharing your wife's experiences and recommendations. Infections are a scary thing....I wonder if there is any publicly available information about infection rates? Any of our nurses out there care to comment?

I have also heard positives about Cowin and Duke...just so hard to tell if either of them would and could do a better job on my difficult knee than Dr Kerina. I've also heard that Gainsville has good ortho...might be worth looking into.

Thanks again.
