What Our Patients are Saying

“I have always enjoyed being active. As a former athlete, I was in shape, but my beat up knee was holding me back from enjoying life to the fullest. At 54, I finally decided to have a knee replacement. I spent over a year talking with physical therapists and other health care professionals to find the best technician for my surgery. I wanted a precise implant fit from a surgeon that had extensive experience. My search led me to Dr. Stefan Tarlow. His outpatient technique utilizes robotic technology and a cementless knee to ensure a quick and complete recovery. I didn’t want cement added to my knee to fill in the voids; I wanted the right implant fitted correctly.

The out-patient surgery went well and I was appreciative that I did not have to spend several nights at the hospital. I was back at home that same afternoon. It was clean and I was comfortable. I was actively hiking and biking within two months and when the snow fell, I was skiing hard in Colorado within six months.

If you are like me and are not ready to slow down, I would direct you to Dr. Tarlow. He has performed over 900 robotic-assisted total knee replacements. When you combine experience with technology, only then will you have a winning combination.”
