Hi Chris-thank you for sharing your knee replacement story! You've got it right utilizing a team approach with your surgeon along with their medical staff. It's no longer just the dr's word or orders if you will. Modern day patients are armed with a wealth of information right at their fingertips. A team approach in healthcare lends itself to optimal patient outcomes, and a meaningful relationship with the healthcare provider. I'm very happy for you in your post surgical experience thus far. Continued success to you.
