Dr. Rodriguez changed my life by performing my double knee replacement surgery in 2003. I had been an avid skier since 1979 logging 30-40 days each season. In the last season before the surgery, I tried skiing about 8 times but had to stop after an hour. The pain was so intense that I walked down stairs "backwards". Dr. Rodriguez performed the surgery in May 2003 and I was back skiing the following December. Since the surgery I have skied over 400+ days. At the time of the surgery the oldest of my eight grandchildren had not yet turned 3. I've been fortunate to ski with all my grandchildren, when each skied for the first time and have shared many happy ski days with them during the last 13 years. I will turn 78 in August and tell people that the secret of skiing in your 70's is to have Dr. Rodriguez as the surgeon (+ the brain of a 16 year old). There is no way that I could adequately thank Dr. Rodriguez for how much he changed my life in such a positive way.
