Dr. Appell kindly explained that I only needed a partial knee replacement. I thought, why not a full, and get it over with?! His wisdom and accuracy in diagnosis proved on point. The day OF surgery, I did'nt even need a walker or cane. I was completely surprised that my pain was gone after surgery. Here I am, 3 weeks out and even got the OK to start jogging again~with a little caution. Dr. Appell and his incredible staff have changed my life for the better!! BIG thanks to ALL of them!!
