Last year I had been having a lot of pain in my left knee. The first person I thought of seeing was Dr. Ast. He had already replaced both of my hips at his former practice and I knew I would be in good hands. He has the best bedside manner and always made me feel very comfortable about having this done. I just know that from the moment I came out of surgery, I never felt pain again. All of the nurses and other doctors that I had seen were also wonderful. Now, because of having my knee replaced I was able to go to Disney World with my family and walk around for many days without any knee or hip pain. Dr. Ast, thank you for giving me my mobility back. You are the best!
