So, I am looking for advice from people that have had this done and a recommendation for very good surgeon, as well any other firsthand advice, like who to stay away from.

My goal is to get back to bowling and some golfing without the current pain.

I have had replacement of both knees. Yes you can live with the discomfort but why. First knee, over the top. Normal recovery, crutches, slow heal. Second knee over the side. I was walking with a walker that afternoon, on the street. Optimotion, has an office on. Hwy 44. I vote for the side.
