3rd knee replacement in a year and a half on same knee
Joint Replacements | Last Active: 1 day ago | Replies (43)Comment receiving replies
I am in a similar state of not being able to get treatment from others doctors in my area. They don’t want to redo or check other doctors work. My surgeon will not do a MRI and referred me to pain management. In other words, he is done with me. I don’t know how to get resolution. Mayo denied me. I am looking into an independent knee center out of state as I am miserable. I have been dealing with pain over 3 years from knee surgeries!

I got surgery done at HSS in NY
Totally messed up. Another surgeon in PHILLY redid the surgery but only corrected part of the problem. Implant size is too big. Only solution is third surgery. That is risky and no surgeons wants to touch it. Total neglience and greed (do not take medicare only cash so add more surgeries on same day)by surgeons
Similar story. Three and half years and two surgeries and I am in more pain now than four years back. Surgeons do no listen to you and once they mess up do not want anything g with you.
One more thing my surgeons did not mention my symptoms like swelling,pain on patient portal so they can over themselves

Dr Kaplan in Arizona. Uses the latest technology. He’s with the Abrazo group. Check him out on line. Please consider calling the office and speak to one of the PAs. My heart goes out to you. I had tkr 6 months ago. Ready to do the other knee in Dec.
