Default Total knee replacement specialists near The Villages

Afraid am getting close to total knee replacement for both knees and would appreciate any physician experiences and recommendations. Heard that some doctors are using a side vs frontal entry procedure so the scar is on the inside of knee vs front. Also will some do both at same time? Thanks

Do a search on this web site for knee replacements. There have been MANY posts over and over again on this subject.

From personal experience, Dr. Steven Nguyen is excellent.

I had a full knee replacement from Dr. Karina at UNOVA. I was walking the next day and playing golf within a couple of months and softball a bit later.
