Default Knee Surgeon

I am new to the Villages and need to find some new doctors. Specifically, I am due for a knee replacement. Does anyone have a recommendation for a knee surgeon? Thanks!

Dr. Joe Tutorino, Jewett Orthopedic Group, Orlando, 407-381-8441; you will not find a better surgeon. Full replacement, back golfing in 6 weeks; did mine and my wife’s knees.

Dr. Timothy Van De Leur from the Orthopedic’s Institute. He did mine and I was bending at 110 degrees an hour after in my hospital room.

Six months after Dr. van De Leur did my husband’s replacement it became infected. After 2 attempts with spacers Dr. van De Leur walked away from my husband’s case, leaving him with a spacer and no one to take it out.

Third Vote for Dr. Duke in Ocala.

The people here on many sports teams know and love him and his office staff. He is and he has extremely competent, curteous and professional staff. Surgery is fine at West Marion Hospital and you can usually go home the same day.

Good Luck to you!
