Jon Cornelius immediately addressed my fears instinctively. He was empathetic, patiently explained the procedure, and the expectations for after surgery. I came all the way from Hawai’i so that I could have the full knee replacement with robotics, something that is still relatively rare in my state. I feel confident that the procedure will be successful and I’m looking forward to living a better life with a cooperative knee joint.

Dr Cornelius was very professional and educated. He made you feel very comfortable with clearly explaining your procedure. Every office you saw to be connected with your procedure knew exactly their part and other team members. I was very pleased and felt truly cared for by him and his staff.
Highly recommend !!!!!!
