"Rehab Is Not Easy, But It's Well Worth It."

Matthew's Story

What was life like before joint replacement? ​

Before having my knee replaced, it was a great accomplishment just to go up the stairs. ​

What was the turning point for you (the moment you knew you needed to move ahead with surgery)?​

When my knee started to lock up for days at a time, I decided to go ahead and get my knee replaced.​

What is life like now? How has joint replacement changed your life?​

Now I am able to walk up stairs and my knee doesn't lock up anymore.​

What information do you have that would help others considering joint replacement?​

Rehab is not easy, but it is well worth it. I was in rehab for a month, but that's because I live by myself.
