Mine went great. My surgeon was Jimmy Chow who had complimented Dr. K when I told him I had a friend scheduled to have a TKR with him.

Dr. Chow did a mini midvastus entry, did not use a tourniquet, did a Journey II XR implant procedure (a bicruciate retaining implant so I kept my ACL and PCL), did a functional alignment to correct my severe misalignment and then did a plastic surgery close.

I had zero post procedure pain. My surgeon's protocol is to be a couch potato for the first week, then begin a few activities around the house, and commence PT in the third week (he has been doing this for some time before the HSS Quiet Knee protocol was announced). During that first week of PT my therapist measured my ROM at 122. On day 27 after surgery, I was playing golf.

If I had to do it again I would do it with the same surgeon. But be aware..he has withdrawn from Medicare and insurance. If paying his fee (less than a Nano Knee fee) is not doable, then Dr. K is a viable alternative.
