Orthopaedic Testimonials
Report
The past 3yrs since my surgery I've been able to accomplish 2 back to back triathlons (I know kinda crazy) complete my 2nd century ride, and countless 1/2 marathons, and 10ks. I truly had a fear I would never walk again after my surgery. Although I have pain fr time to time nothing compares to what I felt prior.
