I am not going to go through details. I have had severe trauma since my bilateral TKR. Totally disappointed and I am knock kneed now. Physio is helping me to gain muscle strength but my knees are scraping when I walk. Total non alignment. Professionalism and Empathy - could be improved. I totally regret about my decision and going ahead with bilateral TKR. In hindsight I should have done my research about this specialist. Now I have the scars which I have accepted but crooked knee???? After spending so much. ****** *** totally regret. I should have just put up with the pain and waited for my Australian Insurance Plans for Hospital matured. Sorry I’m not being disrespectful *** *** ***** ********** *** **** * *****
