There are 3 Drs that advertise heavily in the paper and I'm looking for comments (good bad or neutral) from anyone who has had first hand experience with either Arthritis Relief Center or Physicians Rehabilitation or The Burress Medical Center.
If I've missed another option please let me know. I would prefer a first-hand experience than picking one blind. I've searched Talk of the Villages and haven't found anything related to this.

had same problem and went to Dr. John Williams,
The Villages Orthopedic & Sports Medicine Center | AOI. 1st option was a Cortisone shots which he said may or may not work. next was the gel and finally knee replacement. He is an ex athlete. Very honest. I took the cortisone shot and that has lasted over 6 months. He said it may or may not work and may last from 1 month to 1 year. So far it has lasted for over 6 months. However I do wear a knee brace when playing golf. He also prescribe Diclofenac Sodium Tropical gel 1%. Which in my opinion is a miracle gel. Can't believe how good this works.
