The problem is alot if not most ortho guys do not use or should I say are not trained in this new technology....therefore they donot recommend it. It supposidly is more advanced than the normal "partial knee "replacement that Surgeons talk about. I could only find Surgeons in Tampa and Orlando that perform this surgery. Not all patients who have arthritic knees are candidates for Makoplasty....the ones who are not candidates have very advanced arthritis and it is in more than one quadrent of the knee area.
