Knee Replacement

Georgia Zaiser

I am so thrilled to be back in the game! Thanks to Dr. Bostrom and the staff at HSS, my knee is stronger than ever. As a former athlete, I was plagued by knee pain and tried everything to avoid a TKR. I had two prior surgeries and tried injections and medication...nothing worked. I learned my knee was "bone on bone" and I had trouble walking. I didn't want to be sidelined at age 49, so I decided to go to HSS for my total knee replacement. My mom had three replacements there and raved about her experience. From the minute I stepped into the building from pre-op to post-op care, I was amazed. Friendly staff, sparkling clean facilities and amazing PT. I am so glad I chose HSS. Five short months later, I am living an active pain-free life. I can't thank Dr. Bostrom and his staff enough. I am even able to belay again for my students on the high ropes course. Thank you, thank you for getting me back in the game. I am eternally grateful as it changed my life for good.
