It’s a procedure that can transform lives, allowing individuals to regain independence and mobility thought lost to debilitating joint conditions.

Knee Replacement Success Story

Meet Debra S., patient of Dr. Arthur Mark of the Seaview Orthopaedics Joint Replacement Team. Just over a year ago, Debra was experiencing constant pain in her knee that left her struggling to walk and unable to continue her normal exercise routines and daily life. After trying conservative treatment with cortisone and gel shots without much relief, Debra and Dr. Mark decided to move forward with a total knee replacement, opting to use the SmartKnee implant.

One year later, Debra is back to riding her bike, working out regularly, and enjoying her vacations without restraint. In the end, Debra’s story is not just one of overcoming knee pain, but of reclaiming her life after years of pain. With each step forward, knee replacement surgery empowers individuals to embrace life with renewed vigor, reminding us all that no obstacle is insurmountable when faced with courage and modern medical innovation.
