If you've been told you should consider knee replacement surgery, contact our team to learn more about your options. In the US, over one-third of knee replacement procedures are not useful or necessary for the patient. A total knee replacement is traditionally thought to be the only lasting treatment for severe knee pain, along with surgeries and prescription medicines. This is not the case.
Patients should always look for non-surgical alternatives and exhaust all other possibilities before making such life-altering, and often costly, decisions. Here are a list of possible treatments and therapies that will be reviewed at your consultation. The doctor will provide a customized treatment plan that fits your needs.
