Hi, I do agree, check all the possibilities and be sure you really do the job right.
I had my left knee done on the West Coast, about 18 months ago. He did the traditional cut and total replacement.
For two months, it was a real chore, could do almost nothing.
So now, again, in this 18 months, I do get a lot of exercise, but I do have quite a bit of discomfort, I will not take pain pills etc.
I have heard good things about Dr. Duke and the other Doctor (Nugyuen ?)mentioned here. There is also another Orthopedic Doctor in the area of Mt. Dora that people rave about, I am not sure what method he uses. Before the replacement, I had the Plasma injections, painful, expensive and no improvement at all.
Good luck. bbbbbb
