Patient Story of: Nelson Alicea
Westerville, OH
Knee Replacement
Share this Story
I was bone-on-bone and could barely walk. I had my left total knee replacement in 2019 and I had my right total knee replacement done in 2021. I am totally recovered and back to playing racquetball three times a week. I feel like a new man all over again and am so glad I had it done. Dr. McLawhorn was excellent. I totally recommend him. After physical therapy, I was playing racquetball again in about 6 months. It’s been 5 years and I still feel great.
