All I have to say God bless these doctors because Without them, we will never walk again.

I was criticized by my partner for watching this video because my surgery was 2 years ago. I informed him that I was interested in seeing how it was done because I wasn't awake to watch my surgery preformed. I found this video very interesting and I like watching videos like this. Some people are real assholes for putting others down.

My great grandfather was a battlefield Dr. in WWI, 1917, France. He served there with Homer Stryker, the founder of the company that builds this machine. He then set up a private practice in new Canaan, Connecticut. Medicine has changed in a miraculous way.

Just had this done on right knee. Off crutches on day two post op . Now at two weeks pos op . Amazing . Now having my left knee done in 6 weeks
@wemiles
you notice as he is removing bone via his "dremel" type tool, his assistant is cooling the bone with water and suction to prevent burns of the osteo and keeps the op field clear. A good assistant makes a lot of difference in the work load in addition to the MAKO
@robellard9079
I had this done with the MAKO here in Brisbane , Queensland , Australia - I went from being on opioid patches for 3 years from having bone on bone grinding in my knee and constant pain, to walking the following day after surgery and without crutches a week later - hugged and kissed my Ortho surgeon at follow up - ❤️❤️❤️❤️Dr D R 🥰

77 year old male here. I had Makoplasty on the medial compartment of my left knee 11 years ago. I am a runner and triathlete and if I did not see the scar on my knee I would not know any surgery had been done. I have been pain free since the replacement, with many miles of running and cycling behind me. It literally gave me back my life, as I was in such pain that basic walking was restrictive. I'm so thankful for my doctor and this procedure!
@U2WB
WOW this is so impressive ! And the doctor impresses me most, because he not only has to be an orthopedic specialist, but he’s clearly very highly skilled with the interface to this robot computer as well. Multiple disciplines. Impressive.
@jamescostello6529
I had a Mako TKA 2 years ago last February. I did my exercises before and after. I lost 33 pounds pre-op. I went back to work with only one week of physical therapy after my in home therapy. I told my Ortho on the 2 year visit that he literally save my life as the pain was so bad that depression and suicide were bubbling up. I have zero pain in that joint an am looking forward to getting the other one done.
@joebuck4618
Unreal what surgeons can do with the right equipment. I had my knee replaced 2 weeks ago and am very happy with the results.
@suzannejones7260
My doc told me this week that nothing but a TKR will fix the pain in my left knee. He does the Mako surgery and I feel so much better about this seeing this video. I'm still apprehensive because I'm 64 and have never had a major surgery or major medical issue in my life thank the Lord. I can't wait to be able to walk without limping, to get up and out of a chair without assistance and to be able to take walks or even shop for myself. What a miracle this Mako protocol is.
@paulnash7630
I had a total knee replacement in August 2018 and my knee is totally pain free, I'm so happy I had the operation, NHS staff were fantastic
@ImaQuilter
I had this done on my left knee just about 4 weeks ago in Knoxville TN at Park West Hospital. My surgeon used what I believe is this robotic system. I cannot stress enough how well I have recovered.
@lorettaspigno9293
I had robotic left TKR on 4/25/2023. Preop pain was 15 out of 10. Post op pain level, 2 out of 10. I was weeks away from living in a wheelchair preop. This procedure was a miracle. Up walking the day after surgery. Minimal pain medication. Going back for right total knee replacement in November.
@rickchapman4240
I had full right knee replacement in 2017, and left partial in 2019.....the best decision I ever made ......those doctors and staff are amazing!!!!
@pamelaspencer6172
I had this robotic surgery done in Morgantown, WV. Dr. Lindsey was my surgeon and he is very good and has a terrific bedside manner and checked on me after my surgery every hour or so. I definitely will have him do my other knee when my knee heals completely. He is going to remove my eleven year old partial!
@stevenmccallan9202
The doc is like; Ho, hum another day at the office. I half expected him to take a sip of coffee during the operation. Thank God for such highly skilled doctors and nurses
@4321grp
I had both knees replaced 9 years ago, it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I've had absolutely no trouble and they're still going strong.
@yellowmoon9308
I am having this in 2 weeks, the comments are very comforting.
