I disagree with the comment about not going to a surgeon in their late 50s or 60s. My surgeon is in that age range and is the one the RNs and some doctors go to for their replacements. He continues to educate himself and his staff. My knee is fantastic at 3 months PO...knock on wood. Best of luck with your recovery.

Thanks Mary,

And my apologies for generalizing about doctors. Of course there are great doctors and surgeons in their late 50s and 60s.

I had just moved and didn't have a surgeon. So the criteria I mentioned is a suggestion for people who need to find someone. It worked great for me, especially having Mako robotic assisted TKR. For those considering a TKR, I recommend it.

Thanks again Mary.

Joe
