Two weeks ago I had my second opinion appointment and I was extremely disappointed. I actually printed responses from this website that described my issues and he didn't even look at it. He acted as if he knew all the issues all ready. He did not ask me any questions and seemed very reluctant to discuss a revision with no explanation as to why. I told my femur surgeon, who recommended him, my experience and she seemed baffled. I now have a second opinion with a nother doctor later this month. I guess I am writing this to vent my frustration with this whole TKR journey. Meanwhile since my femur is healing nicely I am getting stronger but that bend is still a b**tch.

I have very similar experiences after my knee surgery that was messed up by surgeon. Much more pain less range of motion after two and half years. To get second opinion have been a nightmare. Some drs did not ask a single question and did not even look at the knee.
