5/5
I was really afraid of knee replacement as I have a bad lower back and I thought my recovery would be very difficult. Instead, I was so lucky to have Dr Chen whose expertise made my experience so much easier than I thought. My leg was completed out of shape due to a neglected knee and Dr Chen restored my leg to it s original form. It was barely a week after surgery and I did well on onlyTylenol.
