A KNEE REPLACEMENT PATIENT TESTIMONIAL FOR DR. HARRIS

“I lived in constant pain for for many years, always been active and wanted to continue to be. But I really couldn't with my knee the way it was. It was obvious that a replacement was really the only solution in my case.”

One thing I liked about the Dr. Harris approach, he was actually the first Surgeon in San Antonio to do minimal invasive surgery.

He inspired confidence.

So this kind of injury years ago would have been sort of the end of an active life.

It was an afternoon surgery, I was walking the next morning, with a walker, of course. Within a couple of days, I was walking with a cane.

The key of course, is rehab. Doing the exercises, which I was very good about. Being without pain is wonderful and not having to take any medicine. I don't take any painkillers, nothing. But for me, it really was a fresh start on my legs.

Since then, I've just been able to do some wonderful, wonderful things, including a walk I took back in 2019 I actually left that tree back there and walked to New York City, 1750 miles and it was it was a wonderful adventure. Walk the entire way and obviously could not have done that with without this knee and there was some nights my knees the only thing that didn't hurt. I'm grateful for it every day.

I remind myself, you know, it's my exercise. It's my meditation. I couldn't do that, if I didn't have this knee.
