Dr. Derek Jenkins, from my experience, is an excellent and trustworthy surgeon. After he performed both of my full knee replacement surgeries, I can highly recommend him without hesitation.

Dr Jenkins is very thorough and he takes the time to explain things. And then he asks you if you have any questions and he listens and he answers your questions. He is very meticulous when it comes to not creating an environment for infection that is his number one priority. I am seven weeks postop doing great soreness and stiffness, but that is all part of it. Thank you very much for my new knee. Would most definitely recommend Dr Jenkins with your TKR!
