The man is straight forward with you. He will tell you his professional thoughts based on his years of experience and show and tell you similarities. I had many doubts on my hip replacement, even while being prepped for it. He told me I could leave if not comfortable with it but I needed it. It is now 12 weeks and I have zero regrets in replacement.
