Patient Story of: Brian O'Connor
Trumbull, CT
Knee Replacement
Share this Story
I was having trouble walking due to pain in my knees. I could no longer garden or do much shopping. I was always taking ibuprofen for pain and every move had to be planned. Now, after two knee replacement surgeries, I can garden again and do household tasks like paint a room or climb a ladder. I can also swim in the ocean and body surf with my grandchildren.
