I can't help you with the big question, yes or no, but I would encourage DH to do a rehabilitation program BEFORE any surgery. This is sometimes called pre-habilitation. Fairly good data suggests better outcome after knee surgery in those who did a formal or at home program for 4 to 8 weeks before the operation
