Default I need a suggestion of a great knee Dr -

I have no doubt that Dr. Nguyen is excellent. But I will admit that it bothers me a little when some of his patients talk about the quick recovery, lack of pain, etc. like results from no other doctors compare. That's simply not the case.

I had a prescription for pain meds that I never used or needed. I was out of the hospital after one night. I was walking...with a walker of course...one day after surgery. Less than three months later I was (cautiously and with doctor's approval) bowling, playing golf and softball, and riding my bike.

Do yourself a favor and consider your options.
