Immediate difference after hip replacement

Excellent Surgeon. Hip replacement performed early in the morning, walked that evening and went home the next day!

Great knee replacement

I realized I needed help in being able to function and improve the quality of life. I had been having injections in my knees to relieve the pain for years, but that was meeting with limited results. I began checking around for surgery options/doctors. I was impressed by the reviews Dr. Gilbert received and decided to make an appointment. The process from that point on was very positive. Dr. Gilbert discussed my knees with me and explained the process. I had my surgery on October 7th, 2013 and my left knee is great. I am now planning to have my right knee done with Dr. Gilbert. I am happy to place a review as I want others to know that I had a great results with Dr. Gilbert.
