After 4-5 years of walking like a penguin, and with a significant limp, it was time to re-visit
Dr. O'Neill and
Jessie for a heart to heart serious discussion to remedy my problem. It was a simple explanation of the proposed replacement and the surgery itself. Scared? Oh yeah! I actually found out that my leg WAS NOT going to be cut in two. The surgery and hospital nurses at St. Francis were OUTSTANDING. I highly recommend them. Rehab was exactly what I was told it was going to be. Sometimes uncomfortable, but NOT UNBEARABLE. The physical therapists at Dr. O'Neill's office were great! Sometimes tough, but not harsh. I worked with Kelly mostly who was outstanding! It is now 3 1/2 months since surgery. My knee truly hasn't felt this good in close to 10 years. I'm looking forward to deer hunting next month, WITHOUT PAIN. THANK YOU DR. O'NEILL, JESSIE and the physical therapists, especially Kelly.
