Hello, I have just had my right knee done by Dr Michael Messieh. He does the anterior approach and does not cut the muscle. Today is the start of my 8th week of "recovery." I played golf today and while not entirely pain free in the knee area, the total replacement is doing phenominal. I have great motion and stability and the pain I had prior to surgery is long gone. Total recovery takes a while but once I could walk on my own (about a week), I have not used and aids. I am able to do household chores-wash the car, clean the windows, run the vacuum etc., and Dr Messieh and his staff was just wonderful. He's a doctor who just happens to be one great surgeon. He has and office one day a week in The Villages and his main office is in Clermont. His wait time to do surgery is very short. I'd give him a 5 star rating. His number is 352-243-6899 and I know you'll be happy with him.
