I am 14 days into my post recovery, right knee. I’ve been walking comfortably on my partial knee replacement since the second day. I haven’t experienced any pain level over a two.

To assess by X-ray only is an evaluation based on minimal info as oppose to immediate x-ray & MRI.

My life is on hold right now because even after surgery I have two other injuries due to this x-ray first and let if be known if the pain gets worse process. Initial MRI in my case would’ve exposed the immediate need for surgery and prevented months of delay and negative occurrences during that waiting pe

I am incredibly pleased with my TKR results from my surgery a year ago. My follow up visit with Dr. Ferro allowed me to ask detailed questions regarding my post surgery condition. I would highly recommend Dr. Ferro to other individuals considering knee aurgery.

If he’s still around when I need another joint, I’ll Be Back!
