Should I be Nervous About My Knee Replacement Surgery?

While anxiety about knee replacement surgery is common, Dr. John P. Dunleavy explains how today’s knee replacement surgery should actually be considered as “knee resurfacing surgery.”  Visuals show how the procedure actually uses metal and plastic pieces on the ends of the bones to rid the patient of bone-against-bone pain caused by arthritis. These new techniques in knee replacement result in faster recovery and better outcomes than in the past.
