When faced with the prospect of knee replacement or knee revision surgery, it is understandable to have many questions and concerns about the surgery and its outcome.

“Perhaps the best question patients should ask any orthopedic surgeon they are considering is “How many knee replacement surgeries do you perform per year?”, according to Dr. Kevin Terefenko of Arthritis & Joint Replacement Center of Reading. “In doing so, it will begin a conversation that should address the surgeon’s ability to provide an excellent surgical experience, but other equally important information such as at what surgical institute or hospital the procedure will occur, possible infection rates, post-surgical care needs and long-term outcome prospects. ”

Dr. Terefenko explains further in this brief video:
