By the time we’re 50, our knees have carried us more than 75,000 miles. Most of us don’t give our knees a second thought — until degenerative arthritis, or wear-and-tear arthritis, takes its painful toll and threatens to end our active lifestyle. Luckily, effective treatments are available.
Our speaker is Dr. Brian Blackwood, who has successfully treated more than 2,000 patients with hip and knee problems. He will describe both non-surgical and innovative surgical treatments for relieving the pain of degenerative knee arthritis, including Mako robotic-arm assisted surgery for partial knee resurfacing and total knee replacement.
