Total Knee Joint Replacement

Are You Considering Knee Replacement Surgery?

Each patient is unique, but generally candidates for knee replacement surgery have:

• Pain severe enough to restrict not only work and recreation, but also the routine activities of daily living
• Pain that is not relieved by more conservative methods of treatment, such as reduced activity, medication or physical therapy
• Significant joint stiffness and loss of mobility
• X-rays that show advanced arthritis or other degenerative problems
