You will learn about: -Deciding on a hip replacement... -Deciding on a knee replacement... -What's going on in your arthritic joints... -Choosing your surgeon... -Preparing your home... -Your options for anesthesia and pain management... -How long you'll be in the hospital... -How long it'ill take to recover... -Physical therapy and why you need it... -What your life will be like afterward...

This definitive, patient's educational resource brings the subject to life for you using clear, understandable language written to guide you in learning everything you need to kw about the journey to a new you.

Robert Holland attended the University of Colorado and graduated Magna Cum Laude with a BS in Information Systems.
