    5.0 out of 5 stars Informative, and helpful

    As I work within the medical field, a nurse friend whose husband had knee surgery recommended this to me. She noted her husband and even she learned things she didn't know before. Found it helped prepare for surgery and for the after recovery (along with using a continuous ice flow machine wrap item for the knee) . I bought three books and this seems the most comprehensive and helpful. Recommended.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A very comprehensive resource for anyone considering knee replacement
    Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2019
    Verified Purchase
    After learning from my doctor that I may soon need a knee replacement I felt overwhelmed. I had very little personal experience with a surgery like this, so I didn't know what questions to ask. This book was extremely helpful by giving me a thorough understanding of what to expect on my journey through the process of knee replacement. After reading this book I was able to ask the right questions, but more importantly I was able to achieve my best outcome.

    The book was concise and gave very practical information to someone who is inexperienced with joint replacement surgery. The illustrations were useful.
