does he understand and acknowledge metal allergies can affect a patient with TKR?

I have had first one done 2 years ago 6 month later had to have redone. The glue had not bonded to bone on one side and it was loose.
I have been in worse pain. Then before. Long story short I am allergic to 11 of the 15 metals in my knee No Dr will take it out afraid I will have too much bone loss and nothing to attach it to.
But no Dr will say the pain it from the metal

He completely understood what was going on with my MOM hip implant and helped me with the paperwork required for a lawsuit. He also testified against a doctor involved in MOM hips at one point so he's not your typical doctor that's afraid to speak out against others. I've had 5 hip surgeries, consulted with 10 - 12 surgeons throughout the process. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my hips or knees.
