Knee Replacement

Cynthia Vahjen

I came to HSS after several years of knee pain and a failed meniscus repair surgery. Dr. Haas quickly determined that it was time for a knee replacement. In May of 2013 he performed the surgery. By spring of 2014 I was back on the golf course enjoying playing with my husband. This past winter, I was able to rejoin my family downhill skiing. It is so wonderful to be thinking of all the things I can do, rather than the things that I cannot. I am even ready to think about trying a few new activities. The thought of getting in and out of a kayak had seemed impossible. I'm ready to try. Dr Haas, thank you for getting me back in the game!
