"On August 1, 2011, I had my left knee replaced at HSS. I had been told by friends that most people that have one knee replaced are hesitant about going back and having a replacement of the other knee.

I am now 20 years old, and a member of my college dance team, part of two dance companies, and pain free- I could not be happier!"
