Knee Replacement

John Flanagan

My world changed when I couldn't walk. Dr. Peter Sculco replaced my knees, and the pain disappeared.

Both arthrotomies spontaneously dehisced; extremely unusual, and very rare bad luck. Dr. Sculco never gave up. His new technique of barbed sutures, flaps, and xeno/allografting was successful.

Wai-Kwong Hui, PT, DPT, skillfully taught me to walk again, always balancing wound healing, flexibility and strength.

Dr. Sculco and Wai-Kwong Hui gave me sea legs and life. Thank you both for getting me Back in the Game.
