A Knee replacement Patient Testimonial for Dr. Harris
A patient’s journey through Total Knee Arthroplasty with Dr. Harris.

What I discovered as I recovered was that my mind felt sharper and I had fewer moody periods. I think I had been using more brain power than I realized just trying to mentally block out the pain. Now that space was available in my brain for other things. I felt free-er.

Straight from DR. Harris: total HIP REPLACEMENT 101
In a total hip replacement, we remove the ball to insert metal and plastic to make up for bone and cartilage loss. These parts are artificial, but serve the same function as our own. There are no nerves in the metal or plastic so the pain associated with the rubbing of ‘bone on bone’ in the joint is relieved.
