Everyone one was great with my Jiffy Knee replacement surgery couldn’t have asked for better treatment and professional care! Thank you so much!
Discussed the knee injury thoroughly, and we decided on the treatment which is already working well. I am able to negotiate the steps with my cane, and really do not need the walker.
