@gobigorgohome I really could not be more happy with how good that knee feels. When I do a lot of exercise the other knee will often hurt slightly but not the Conformis. My orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Wolfgang Fitz, is one of the developers of the Conformis. I was told about him before my first TKR but I was in extreme pain 24/7 so I took a doctor who could do it sooner.

Contentandwell. I’m happy to hear about your satisfaction with the Conformis knee. Overall, it sounds like you’re doing very well. Both of my knees are so bad my Dr felt it would be best to do them at the same time. I realize PT. will be a bit more difficult but the idea of having two good knees soon sounds wonderful. My surgeon, Dr. Driessnack, has been doing Conformis for many years. My timing couldn’t have been better. He is retiring in June. Just got in under the wire.
