Thank you! I have heard all good things about the hip and knee surgeons at Mass General. My primary care is there, so I am affiliated as a patient with MGH. However, a nurse friend of mine highly recommended The New England Baptist. She had had her hip surgery there. It is known for knees, hips, backs, necks etc. My doctor was James Bono, MD who is renowned in his field of knees and hips. He is “a doctor’s doctor”. My problem was not being able to tolerate the pain meds after the surgery. They tried four different types of medication and I was allergic to each one. So……all that I could do was Extra Strength Tylenol, which did not even begin to “touch” the pain that I was having! It would be the same situation if I had to have the second knee done, so for now, I will just continue with the cortisone shots every three months and hope that they continue to help me.
