Knee Replacement Recovery in Six Weeks.
For many people suffering from chronic knee pain,
the thought of surgery and a six-month recovery for
traditional knee replacement surgery is enough to endure
the pain a bit longer. After all, who wants to sit on the
sidelines for six months? Now you don't have to.
At Sinai-Grace Hospital., our minimally invasive total knee
replacement gets you back in action. This innovative
technique allows you to walk unassisted in two weeks,
with a total recovery time of six weeks—as opposed to
six months for traditional. knee replacement surgery.
The surgery is performed by Dr. Robert Ference, a
nationally recognized leader in minimally invasive
knee replacement.
Just think: In six weeks, you can continue your active
lifestyle—or just climb a flight of stairs—without pain.
That's true progress.

replacement center, Joint Plus Excel, at
