The knee works harder than any other joint in the body. The knees synchronize the hips and ankles, allowing both joints to flex, extend and rotate. Knees let us sprint, jump, bend and climb stairs. Advanced age and rigorous physical activity are major factors that can stress the knee joint.
"Knee pain can almost seem inevitable. But you can't let it go untreated. If it's not promptly addressed, even a minor knee strain can become a major replacement."
- Dr. Vince Dalton
When a stiff, painful knee restricts normal activity and other treatment options like therapy, bracing and orthotics are exhausted, knee replacement surgery is often a patient's best option.
Dr. Dalton specializes in both total and partial knee replacements. With just a small incision and a tiny arthroscopic camera, he can diagnose and repair knee ailments as well as determine whether a knee replacement is necessary.
